Thanks Charity relay! Those hamsters have earned their Guinness!  :)


Thanks for confirming the ID Brian! I was fairly sure this was Charity, but there seems to be a bit of geomagnetic storm activity currently! Music is punching through very nicely though!  :)

Here is a link to google drive of my recording of direct reception here in Springfield, Massachusetts. A real radio with knobs using Audacity to record!  ;)
