Huge signal in Queens, NYC tonight on the Tecsun PL990. Perhaps a Woodstock theme tonight?

Fantastic wide and loud audio as well - not an easy task to process audio for shortwave!

If host is live - throw on some Beatles?

Good signal in central, Maryland. Some noise. Listening on a Yaesu FTDX-10. DSP on makes a big difference.
