We switched to the G5RV at exactly 9:30PM EDT (marked by 5 seconds of silence).  We will switch back to the new vertical at exactly 10:00PM EDT (marked by 5 seconds of silence).

I've tried 3 of Chris S.'s Kiwi's one with 500 ft. beverage pointed N.E. of Westminster, MD. I can hear audio on all 3, but it can't get over a
wide motorboating noise.

Muddy Waters "Mannish Boy" big signal on a W.PA. Kiwi w/ what the owner calls "a very big loop."

That song was one of the first diss tracks, except for a few words, it's exactly the same as Bo Diddley's "I'm A Man" recorded the year before. It's Water's telling the 22 year old Bo to sit down and shut up. A lot of Hoodoo references and sexual innuendo in both songs.

I'll go with "water" for the theme of tonight's show.
