Lou:
Click on the following link:
http://www.lownoiserecords.com/wwv_the_tick.html
Then, you'll find the link entitled "the tick" that I think you already
referred to.
Finally, right below that link once you click on it is a graphic link as
follows:
THE TICK - CLEAR CHANNEL'S NEW WWV
That should get you there.
It's a real hoot!
If you still have trouble, let me know, and I'll try to give you further
instructions.
Enjoy!
