Yeah dude, you're doing what the very first automated digital FM stations were doing back in the late 1990s, serving the people with new stuff they wouldn't hear otherwise. Like, I would've never heard "Manic Panic" by Broken Baby if you hadn't played it on your show. It's a great thing for both the indie music community and the shortwave/amateur radio community!
