Thank you so much. I began listening around the Bay of Pigs time. Chassis from a 1946 8 tube Philco AM/SW/78 rpm record player console (No FM in those days...) Found at a St. Pet auction, late 1950s Was eaten by Termites, so my Dad gave the insides to me We burned the rest. I ran 65 ft of telephone open wire up our pine tree! Used a Model A spark plug as an arrestor Opened a world of BBC Radio Nederlands D-W VOA RFE Etc. First of a string of SW radios An S-40a T-O 7001 Grundig And DX 390s Now nearly new Sangean ATS-818 and 818CS From on eBay... $36 and $42... Plus SDR radio online! STAY INFORMED! Live Free or DIE!

@@UCLAfilm01 Yes and now the Taliban has banned VOA in Afghanistan... They need shortwave more than ever. But no...the voice of reason knows better. While our enemies the Chinese dominate the bands with RCI spinning lies and stirring up trouble.
Looks like an RCA control desk. Willis Conover and 'Music USA' always stays in my mind from my teenage short wave listening days. He introduced me to some fine musical artists. I'm sad that we are loosing touch with the analogue world. There is everything you want on the Internet, but it's not the same as listening on good old short wave and AM radio via you're own stand alone radio set.
My Dad worked at the station featured in some of the visuals and I remember hearing some of those broadcasts when I would visit him at work. Thank you for the nostalgia!
RUclips's algorithm showed this in my feed, so I'll comment. I lived in Selebi-Pikwe, Botswana from the late 1980s to the first half of the 90s and listened to the VOA both on SW, and MW (on 621 kHz). I used to listen to the Jazz Hour...It's time for Jazz (good ol' Willis Conover)...Communications World was another favourite. I used Yankee Doodle to get me up every morning at 05h00 and listen to the news over a cup of coffee. Good times! God bless all of those who worked there and I hope (if they're still around) they're all well.
When I hear this interval signal...I missed years 1980s - 1990s, times when I was a teenager, busy with my father's shortwave receiver, trying to get free information about language and culture of other countries. It was a happy and peaceful moment although there was no Internet at that time
Mucha nolstagia por la radio de onda corta, y al escuchar el sonido que identifica a la voz de los EEUU, era una de las emisoras que escuchaba , lástima que el internet acabara con muchas estaciones de radio. Cómo de España, Francia, Rusia, Alemania. Ya la onda corta está casi muerta.

God bless the Voice of America! I appreciate you being with us in the communist times. I was secretly listening the Voice of America as a child in Czechoslovakia. Listening this melody makes me cry. Thank you America. Wish you all the best!

I listened to this music in 1995 from Villahermosa Tabasco México, great memories...
Love it .. grew up listening to it in India during my teenage years
This song is still used today for end programs in shortwave. I have some memories from their French and Hausa programs in Cameroon
Very nostalgic, I used to listen to VOA in the Fiji Islands during the late 70's as a teenager.
I listened this in Estonian almost every day in 1980thies

It's Nostalgic For Me 😎 First Time I Heard This Ending In 1977～1979 By Shortwave Radio 😀 Thanks To Upload 😀 Thank You So Much 🙇
My dad used to listen to this in soviet occupied Lithuania, God bless
I used to hear this all the time when I was a teenager.
Wonderful music still unbeaten. 🇮🇳
I used to listen to this everyday since 1986 (im surprised that i still listen to it)
I remember-"Welcome to the VOA in Bulgarian"-says speaker.Even prohibited in eastern Europe during the Cold War,I followed them....
A "Тук е радио Свободна Европа"? :)
One of the song that reminds me of my childhood time 🥹
"Yankee Doodle" version by Eric Rogers Chorale & Orchestra, a bit clipped/edited.

I remember.... in 1991 gulf war
in early 2000s, I can still capture this radio broadcast in shortwaves during midnight in Malaysia.

OMG this is so nostalgic, used to listen Indonesian section of VOA through shortwave radio in late 90's
