I bet you could hear WBNY with one of those in Singapore via a daylight path.

Too bad I was only able to get a regular Grenade, and not the "Miracle Whip" version like Billo's. That little antenna made that thing go. I wonder if he got that antenna from the folks selling these?

I've got one just like it here on the desk, willing to take half the price of the other one and I'll ship it.
