Late posting as this listener couldn't be induced to stop babbling in the IRC chat....
With 2 heavy hitters on at the same time, I was getting disoriented spinning the knob on the NRD...RFW with S9 and superb audio and Wolverine with S9+10 and superb audio. After Wolverine signed off, I headed back over to 6965U and parked there until DJ Dickweed said he was tired and mentioned he could use some caffeine...I QRT'd during the Caffeine tune that followed...aside from the problems with that amp dude...well, it works very nicely! Hope to hear some more of the same

Late posting here...too busy yakking in the chat room last night amidst a backdrop of Wolverine and occasional skirmishes over to 6965 to hear what DJ Dickweed was playing. Listened back this morning on the SCR***  but the songs were the same as last night in real time . Killer S9+10 with the "Feel" theme and superb audio. RFW was right up there with a solid S9, so the heavy hitters were squared up in their corners....watch out Wolverine...DJ Dickweed has that new amp...

It’s unlikely I’ll go through the trouble of tuning my shortwave receiver just to recreate the experience.
