Our answer came this morning, Thursday the 30th!
Congratulations to Fred K. of Ionia. He guessed a "fan to cool your butt" while rocking. We gave him the prize, as the actual answer reads:
"The rocking chair had a large propeller shaped fan mounted to its head. As it rocked, the propeller turned, eventually moving the chair on its own power.
Supposedly, this was perpetual motion and air conditioning combined.
Proof that anybody can pretty much patent anything.
New question next Wednesday.....play along!

Ah, I knew something was different....I didn't sense the "force" listening...lol.
No answer yet, carried over to next week.
Tomorrow the "round table" has the day off, and as a different treat, we simulcast Jim Aaron from Greenville/Lakeview MI with his Friday co-host.
I'll be "on assignment" working engineering....and (gasp) may have to switch the 'net feed to FM temporarily.
Clues thus far on the wake up call: Not Animal, Vegetable or Mineral. Not human, either.

Wouldn't the net feed come straight from the board, independent of either transmitter?
Nope. If you do that you have zero processing for consistent levels or "tone" control and...we
take the feed from a tuner to prove what AM can sound like!
And it works! We're the talk of quite a few radio boards. It's great for P.R.!

Tomorrow Jim dives in to this question again... Maybe he will get a winner, maybe he wont. 
Tune in and find out!

Not: population of pigeons, births, deaths, volcanoes, and not "animal, vegetable or mineral." (that's a clue.) not homes for sale, junebugs, floods, weddings, a good hollywood movie, school reunions, meteorites, cruise-ships with issues, government cover-ups, numbers of college graduates, or divorces........and the list goes on. Tune-in Wednesday 6 to 9 AM for the question, your calls, and more fun! Let's hear some new voices "on the air" too! Penny will join me as co-host!
