Tuned in at 0103 on Barrington Hills IL sdr with S7 to S9+ signal, came on as soon as Wolverine left air, old Cheverolet ad then old radio crime drama called "black (something)", I don't like crime dramas so I tuned out.

I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com
