The early units did use a 9 volt battery but the later ones used a power supply rated at +12 VDC to +15 VDC, and (my concern) "less than 50ma". The power supply from Universal says that it is 2.89 amps. Will that be an issue?

At 0144 there were several references to "dot com" but was unable to make out anything else.

Seems to be a live re-broadcast of the Philadelphia Phillies and the New York Mets.

I recently received a Palomar VLF Converter but it did not come with the power supply. I was wondering if this one would be an acceptable power supply.

Was sick last night and headed off to bed around 0200. Turned on the G6 Aviator and was pleasantly surprised by the signal and was able to listen as I dozed. Best USB signal that I have ever gotten on the radio.

My sister and I have been trying to find a priest to perform an exorcism on our mother to rid her of the QVC demon. Unfortunately we can't find a priest that wants to put in the overtime. Were not sure how much she has pissed away, but I'm not planning on an inheritance.

Believe that the 0004z image says Amphetamine Radio on the bottom.



The 0016 (third) image is much better. Showing a mode of SC2 180.
