I've only heard them clearly twice since I started listening to shortwave back in 2002. Once was very early on when I didn't know what the heck I was doing, the other was more recent, and that was arguably iffy as I was suffering through some awful distortion to get copy. Manageable, but not at all perfect. Uf da! I wonder just what it would take to fix that benighted setup of theirs? I wish somebody would fly over there and give their engineers a hand, yeesh. I sure couldn't do it, lack of money and major lack of engineering know-how.
