I recall listening to a satellite launched by China that played 'The East is

think it was up near 20 MHz or so. Perhaps someone else remembers it.

I'll have to get a sound-card going again here as it would be a thrill to listen
to the recording they have up there on the site.

Almost as much of a thrill as it was to hear it live at the time I'll bet.
