Caught "Comfortably Numb" as I turned on as well. Typically killer signal but lots of strong static crashes.
Please QSL to MaplRadio@gmail.com

Next weeks contest: guess how many Volkswagons can fit in Joy Behars mouth. I pick five.

I can *just* hear the heterodyne of a carrier in SSB mode, but nada on AM.

Peace!

Similar situation to Cmradio here; I could hear the het of a carrier on the sidebands, but barely anything at all on AM.  Darnit...
