Better than it was an hour ago. I'd give it a 333.

Can we here "Vacation" by the Go-Go's for America's favorite dx'er, Al Fansome?

LMAO! I expected "Vacation" but the tire pressure PSA had me howling. Props sort went south after "Rockaway Beach", but in one of the constants that is pirate radio, came back up for the sign-off. It must have been that extra shot of Fanco Propagation Spray? Nice show! About an S-6 on peaks.
