Hey.
Signal Hill is a listener-powered publication, and we're running our first-ever membership drive right now. If you can, sign up to support us. We'll send you our special Inspirations Newsletter (with curated recommendations from our editors, contributors, and special guests). And, for a limited time, members at every tier will receive a one-of-a-kind, hand-crafted mystery shirt. When Issue Two comes out in the fall, you'll be able to say: "Hey! I helped make that happen!"Thanks for listening.Support the show

Editors' Note: Issue One
The first transatlantic radio signal ever received hit an antenna attached to a kite attached to a wire attached to a tower on top of Signal Hill, St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada on December 12th, 1901. It said ‘s’ in Morse Code (‘dot dot dot’).We’re named after all the places in the world called Signal Hill. There are eighteen that we know of.Support the show
