Been catching Dickweed and Stavin here at a S7 at best. Heard them talking about PORN. Really a tough catch here. Also suffering some QRM from the neighbor's solar inverter. Solar is sweet but the inverters sure are RF polluters. :-\

i dont want to annoy RFW by saying anything but there appears to be too much low end, 40Hz and lower appear to be boosted too much creating the distortion you hear on both my station and the live stream with the music.
otherwise, it sounds great as always.
other than using a limiter and symmetrical clipper so modulation is regulated, the relayed sound is straight through
