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

Just gave us all a shoutout!

Explained to me over the air why I didn't recognize the song.

Thanks RFW, love the show!

Hey DJ! Great audio in Winter Park, FL SIO 232 due to local static crashes but clean clear audio, has actually improved since video taken.

Great to hear you Mr. Dickweed!

Good signal here in Georgia.  S9 to S9+10.  The Apollo audio tune was interesting!

Pounding in here since 0125. Actually, this may be the best signal on the SW bands now, as everything else is weak or covered by static. They even played my request for Nirvana! Thanks Dickweed!

Really good signal into Chicago tonight - an Apollo space mission song (not sure who did that one though) followed by ID.
Listening with the Racal 6790/GM tonight.  Thanks for the show!
