Here is a song by the German group Birth Control called "The Work Is Done".

It's a typical anti Vietnam war song, but at 2m11s in there is a piano piece
whch I am convinced was the callsign of a radio station.

Can anyone confirm which callsign it was?

The Work Is Done, The Work Is Done
The Work Is Done I Have Just Killed A Child
You Know Down In Vietnam
It Needs No Father, It Needs No Mother
It Needs No Parents Anymore, Cause You Know,
Cause You Know The Work Is Done

So Gimme Shelter, So Gimme Shelter
So Gimme Shelter Uncle Sam, I'm A Lonely Boy
I Have Just Killed Someone
So Gimme Shelter Uncle Sam, I'm A Lonely Boy
I Have Just Killed Someone

I Love The Peace, I Love The Peace
I Love The Peace And If I Killed The Enemy They Said
I Have Done Nothing Wrong
Do Me A Favour, Do Me A Favour
Do Me A Favour Just Believe That I Feel What I Say
Life Is Hard Enough

So Gimme Shelter, So Gimme Shelter
So Gimme Shelter Uncle Sam, I'm A Lonely Boy
I Have Just Killed Someone
So Gimme Shelter Uncle Sam, I'm A Lonely Boy
I Have Just Killed Someone

PIANO CALLSIGN?

So Gimme Shelter, So Gimme Shelter
So Uncle Sam Look What I Have Done
I'm On My Way
I'm Going Home

How about snipping the relevant section,
instead having to listen to the entire piece,
and provide a link to an mp3,
or just post the dot dash sequence
if you can't be bothered to look it up yourself?

You may want to work on that sentence a little more.

It's OK, I worked it out myself. It uses the old Radio Warsaw
callsign!

I don't have a soundcard Simon. Is this a callsign sent in morse using the piano
or is it an interval signal played on the piano?

It was technically an interval signal, not a callsign. Sorry for any
misunderstanding caused.

The song has a piano piece at 2m11s which is the Chopin "Revolutionary
Etude" that was the interval signal for Radio Warsaw.

There was no Morse involved.

Off topic, but does anybody know if Poland is still on the air, and if
so if they broadcast in English or anything besides Polish and Russian
and maybe a few other languages of Eastern Europe? I remember seeing
an entry in Passport a few years ago for a "Radio Polonia" that had a
little bit of English. It was to Europe IIRC, and like other former
Soviet Bloc stations it was hard to hear outside of the target area
due to deteriorating equipment and electricity shortages. I suspect
that the old Soviet built transmitters used by Eastern European
stations are getting pretty rickety by now, over 15 years after the
fall of the USSR, and when they quit for good there's usually no money
to replace them, so the countries usually go silent key permanently.
Then again, the old Russian tx's at Sam Neua in Laos were still
limping along a couple years ago as per an article in Passport, so I
guess anything is possible, but those were very weak. One report at
the time of the Passport article had Sam Neua barely audible in the
South Pacific.

I don't know if they have any transmitters still working, but they're on
two hours a day on the North American English schedule for World Radio
Network. (Probably one hour a day, duplicated). External Service of
Radio Poland, at 10 AM and 8 PM Pacific Daylight Time.

WRN also carries Radio Prague, Radio Budapest, Radio Slovakia International,
and Radio Romania International.

I get it as overnight programming on one of the local educational stations
(KXOT 91.7 Tacoma), 11 PM-6 AM, so I can't get the Poles, just the Czechs
and Romanians.
