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!?

SDR recording catch, finally catching up on my recordings from last night.  Very good signal here, no QRM and very little static.

Thanks for the fun program of train/railroad related songs!
