Yeah, but he can't get call's on the air or be heard by his callers. He finally got it fixed!

That was funnier than the night Al Weiner refurbished the WBCQ studio and Timtron couldn't take calls.

6955 USB music jussst barely audible on the outdoor portable. Waiting for ID before I duck back inside. I'm still in shorts and t-shirt from afternoon bike ride and temperature is dropping quickly at dusk.
0030-0040z Signal was just beginning to improve when I lost it here.

I have this really weak and noisy in NE Nebraska. Cannot make out what the songs are but can hear the music above the noise.
