HySki (Hy Lit) fans rejoice!!

The great Hy Lit of Philadelphia is still kickin' and he's back on the 'air' with his own streaming website complete with all the oldies he used to play on WIBG and complete with the ORIGINAL jingles (PAMS) from WIBBAGE Radio 99 also WFIL, KYA, and KHJ to name a few "extras". It's like a trip through memory lane. I've been listening now (just discovered it) for the last 20 minutes. No DJs though :>(
Real old stuff fans of Hy Lit should remember (The Moldy Oldies the Golden Gassers) (now playing-For Your Precious Love-Jerry Butler and The Impressions in stereo!) The 128kbps fidelity is excellent with a high speed connection
Found it thru the Kurt Hanson RAIN website (link below)
Direct link to website can be accessed thru the RAIN site or below!

Re: Hyski on WOGL & History

Hy Lit is also still on the air Sunday nights 7-9pm on WOGL 98.1 Philadelphia with the "Hy Lit Hall of Fame", a title going back to the early Wibbage years when the "oldies" were a year or two old! He is somewhat slowed by Parkinson's disease but it's still good to hear him on the air. I think I heard WOGL jock Harvey Holiday ("Street Corner Sunday" doo-wop show following Hyski) say the station would be streaming soon, so those out of the area will be able to hear their Sunday night oldies shows.

For those not familiar, Hy Lit was an early rock & roll dj on WDAS, then WIBG from the late '50's off & on into the early '70's. When WIBG left the air in 1977 he came back for a week to do the "Wibbage Wake" with Joe Niagara. After years traveling as announcer for the Harlem Globetrotters, then on WTRT Trenton & WPEN, WSNI & WPGR in Philadelphia, he ended up at WOGL, where he's been for over 15 years.

Can someone answer a question for me? I find that when trying to connect to the streaming audio of this particular website, I have a lot of trouble connecting to the streaming audio unless I turn off "Security" in Norton Internet Security 2003. Can someone give me some idea why this is happening? If I try to connect to the stream with "Security" on, I generally get "hung up" connecting to the stream. I do not get any particular error message.

I am particularly concerned with this because this does not only happen with this website, but it also happens with certain other websites that utilize Windows Media, such as realoldies1690.com (and others as well). It does not happen with every website utilizing Windows Media (for example wrhu.org works fine) but it happens with enough websites to believe that there is a problem somewhere.

I also find that when this problem happens, I can generally get around the problem by turning off "Security" in Norton, connecting to the stream, and then turning on "Security" in Norton a couple of minutes later. While this can be used as a circumvention, this is not something I want to do, as I do not want to leave my computer unprotected.

Can someone give me some idea what is going on here? I am currently running Windows 98 second edition, Internet Explorer 6, Windows Media 9, and Norton Internet Security 2003.

Let's not forget Hy (and Sam Lit) was also on WKXW when it signed on as Kix 101 1/2 in Trenton, after the change from the lousy automation of WBJH (though they played some great oldies!).
 
I listened to the station for awhile yesterday and it really brings back the music that I heard when I lived in Philadelphia and tuned into an oldies show.

If anyone is not familiar and wants to know what Philadelphia oldies is and what was played this is it to a "T". Motown is prominent. I heard Sally Go 'Round The Roses, It's Gonna Take A Miracle and I am waiting for others such as With This Ring. Songs that were played nowhere but in Philadelphia and some forgotten Motown that was only played in Philadelphia. This station is a real treat, like a good cheesesteak or a soft pretzel. Hold the mustard please.

I had a similar problem with McAfee. I had to shut off the Privacy Service in order to listen to any radio station on-line. I also had problems when trying to read some newspaper sites, such as articles in the Philly Daily News.

I can't explain it, but it happens! By the way, a recent McAfee update solved the problem. I no longer have to shut off any of the protection. You may want to contact Norton and explain what is happening so they can correct the problem in an update.
