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!?

Loud and clear with some moderate fading in Queens on the longwire antenna. Any signal that is louder than the city noisefloor is a winner.
