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!?

The big amp tripped out and no one is at the transmitter site tonight to reset it.  Only running about 20W AM from the exciter. 
Started late too.  Bad day of black rock at the BallSmacker.    We'll try again next week.
