Hearing RFW since 0107 with Velvet underground: Venus in Furs, The Ramones: I Just Want to Have Something to Do, and The Orwells: Dirty Sheets, in addition to regular IDs and talk from Dickweed and Steven about the former's trip to FL. Good signal, with vague interference, mild noise, and a somewhat tinny tone. Great program!

Any chance we might hear Neil Young or Patti Smith?
