MEMBERSHIP SPECIAL

MEMBERSHIP SPECIAL: A one-time $30.00 donation through the PayPal button on our webpage will give you the following benefits:

- One hour of your requests, twice a month. These will be customized into a block by me, and you can mix it up as you wish (top 40 only, minor charters only, album tracks only, an equal mix of top 40 and minor charters, etc.).

- Every other month, you get the opportunity to come up with a special show's theme (60 to 90 minutes).

- You can submit a triple play request on 4 days out of the week and a double play request on the other 3 days. I'm doing this so that I can get more used to the format of our upcoming regular airings of the noontime Triple Decker Music Club.

- Please note that the one-hour request blocks and special show themes must have a variety of artists. The radio gods tend to frown upon a bunch of songs played in a row by a single artist. The triple play and double play requests mentioned above can be by the same artist if you want.

I'm encouraging a collective effort of creativity and not having the programming be all about my sometimes narrow scope (in other words, I don't want there to be too much garage rock or sunshine pop). And who knows, with enough contributors/supporters, one day we could have a stream that would satisfy the most discerning of audio enthusiasts!

Non-members can make one request per day, but I strongly encourage you to join. I have expansion plans for the stations, and who knows, I may one day resurrect Retro AOR (The Retro Attic Of Rock) - I can think of at least a couple of listeners who would love that! Plans like increasing track storage and primo fidelity require more bucks than I can currently handle.

 
If you have any questions about the membership, please let me know either here or through our webpage. #MembershipBenefits #songrequests #themeblocks #doubleplays #TriplePlay #membershipspecial

SERVER DOWN

Please note that our server has been down since approximately 3:55 PM today. I have notified the appropriate person, but I haven't received a reply yet. The hosting company's network status page does seem to indicate a critical issue. Unfortunately, there is no timeline, but I will let everyone know when the server is up and running again.

UPDATE: The server is back up as of 1 PM Eastern on 12/2.

THE RETRO ATTIC WILL BE IMPROVED IN 2026 - WATCH THE BELOW VIDEO FOR MORE INFORMATION!

 Health scares, a residential fire, and the loss of a beloved pet brought my morale down for a while, but it's now time to bounce back! The video below will briefly explain the station's concept and new features that will become regular fixtures in 2026. 

Please consider helping the Davis family. Fire with total loss. Any new Retro Attic programming is currently on hold.

NEED SOME EXTRA CASH AND WANT TO HELP OUT THE RETRO ATTIC? TAKE SURVEYS WITH PRIME OPINION!

 As most of you already know, The Retro Attic is a listener-supported station. I usually don't get enough donations every month to cover my server, player/playlist widgets, and licensing bills, so I have signed up with several online survey companies to help offset these costs. I'm enjoying Prime Opinion more than the rest, and I would like to tell you about them so that you may consider coming aboard with them and help my station out if you're not a fan of donations.

Prime Opinion won't make you rich overnight, but if you're willing to stick with it and are looking to take your family out to dinner or buy yourself some clothing, then it can be worthwhile. They are the only survey company I've seen so far that issues various bonuses (obtained after accumulating specific numbers of points, specific numbers of surveys completed, etc.). They are also one of the precious few survey companies that will frequently give you a couple of reward points for your troubles if one of their clients screens you out of a survey.

I can warn you that most surveys will ask for some demographic information that some people may not be comfortable giving, such as age, ethnicity, and five-digit zip code. I have only run across one survey so far that was looking for more personal information, such as mailing address and e-mail address, but all you have to do is just exit the survey. There are no pop-ups or intrusive ads. I recommend paying attention to the survey ratings, as they will be a good indicator of whether you will be screened out of a survey or not.

There are various ways to redeem your points, including PayPal, prepaid cards, and over a hundred gift card choices. If you are interested in signing up, please feel free to use your bonus code within 24 hours after signing up through the link below; you will then receive a 10% bonus on all surveys you do during the following 24 hours.

If you have any questions or need some information clarified first, then please let me know. I think it's enjoyable for the most part, and you shouldn't have a problem finding a topic that's near and dear to your heart.

Speaking of a bonus code, please use my code JJ7LDI after you sign up and are ready to redeem it. Best of luck to you, and thank you in advance for your help! My Prime Opinion Referral Link

SERVER DOWN

 The server has been down since around noon. I have a Facebook friend who is affiliated with the hosting company of the server, and he has been made aware of the situation. It involves a datacenter network outage, and all I've been told at this point is that it "should be fixed anytime now." Your patience is greatly appreciated.
