Not as good as Radio Hanukkah but a step in the right direction. It is nice to see that Hanukkah will have a place on Sirius.

Funny...Hanukkah starts at sundown on the 16th, not the 15th! Mel, of all people, should have gotten that one right.

Note that Matisyahu will also participate in Radio Hanukkah's programming. Not sure to what extent, but something to note.

Sorry iband but Hanukkah begins this year at sundown on 24 Kislev, 5767 (Gregorian calendar date 15 December, 2006). The first DAY of Hanukkah is on the 25 Kislev (16 December) but the festivities start with the first candle lighting not the first sunrise.

History Guy - last time I listen to my wife about dates -- it does begin the 15th at sundown. My bad. Oy.
