 8) Go for it Dickweed, I love your rants. We now are shipping goat milk post paid.  Good health tou you. Audio sounds a bit hollow tree? Too much Re-Birds? Listening on Vt EQX sounds hollow, but.. direct to my fine radio, just fine? So what ever ?

Tuned in at 2232utc on Barrington Hills IL sdr with fair S7 to S9 signal, DJ=Dick Weed taking calls for free donuts (caller #9 wins), he said he can't eat donuts because he's diabetic and too fat anyway,
Drake R8, Kenwood R-2000, Panasonic RF-4900, Sony 2010, Realistic DX440, Grundig Satellit 500, 7mhz backyard dipole, Mt Prospect, IL 20miles (32km) NW of downtown Chicago. I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com
