Been listening here since around 0145. Bluegrass & country music. Solid signal peaking at about S6. The antenna work definitely paid off. Much better signal tonight than I'd ever had from BOR.

Thanks for the shoutout--100% copy here

Thanks for the show!
Andrew

Caught again last night: "jazzed-up version of "Norwegian Wood" ala banjo/guitar; @ 0218utc. very good signal suddenly fades to almost gone within 15 seconds..." (wazzup with that? Can't be propagation, or can it?)

it can be propagation if we're close enough together when the band decides to go long....it's normal for signals to disappear very quickly...BOR
