Well, it's come to this: It's midnight and I'm listening to a heavy metal cover version of "The Wheels On The Bus Go Round and Round" on pirate short wave radio on Sternradio. Is life great, or what!?

Fair to nearly good at times via the Atwater, Ohio, SDR ...

2240 UTC: "Hand Me Down World" by Tesla.
2242 UTC: "Bad Reputation" by Tesla, with OM making sound on mic really quick at the start. This sounds like Thunder Chicken again.
2247 UTC: "Thank You" by Tesla.
2254 UTC: "I've Got a Feeling" by Tesla.
2257 UTC: "Day of the Eagle" by Telsa. OM on mic briefly commented on how good Tesla's songs were.
2302 UTC: OM on mic briefly mentioned this next song was originally by The Temptations, into "Ball of Confusion" cover by Tesla.
2307 UTC: "Rock Bottom" by Tesla.
2315 UTC: OM on mic: "Good stuff, Maynard," into "Stealin'" by Tesla. The signal's more consistently good now.

Thanks for the music. Haven't listened to that much Tesla at once since my college days in the '90s!
