Good signal in Colorado, SIO 344.

Thanks for the show!

This Ting Tings song rules. (0121) Sorry others are having problems with noise, the signal's only improving here.
0122 "Celebrated Summer" Husker Du - the reason I didn't hear your last show was because I saw Bob Mould in Boulder that night and this was one of the songs he played.

Video I took during "Celebrated Summer" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKDHD58IorI

0132 Signal currently S9 +10 (when set to wide bandwidth, I had it on narrow when I shot the video), some minor fades and static.
