I fell asleep to RML last night, and wake up to him this morning. :)

Conditions are pretty rough here though.  Signal varies between their usual S9+5 powerhouse to just over the noise floor. Coming up on local sunrise here in IA.

I wonder if they're playing even the losers get lucky sometimes for Spike the Rat?
 He got lucky last night.

I think Spike might qualify as the only one doing a little "Offshore Drilling"  ;D

On the signal front, went from s3 to 20-30over sometimes... I didn't note when but it is clearly visible on that short video clip, started really low fade, then pumped up!!!

I love a LIVE announced, time stamped broadcast!!! That's what DJs used to do, before corporate simulcasting!!!
