Radio Russia has also bucked the trend by adopting an interval signal, at a
time when so many broadcasters are dropping them.  This can be heard at the
top of every hour (except 2000, when the NA is played) and consists of the
first bar or so of the National Anthem played on a xylophone-type
instrument. A recording of this can be heard on the Interval Signals Archive
at http://www.intervalsignals.com

Also new on the website is a clean and clear recording of a little-reported
European station, Radio Faroe Islands or "Utvarp Foroeya", signing on at
0700 with an interval signal and short announcement.
