Been there, done that Mr. Tin ear.


Actually I just had my ears tested, and I still have high frequency
response up to 18,000 hertz. I doubt a man of your advance age
(somewhere around 55?), can say the same.


You have no idea how old I am.

If you bothered to TRY those stations, instead of being a close-minded
old grandpa, you'd probably be surprised how good they sound.

Oh well.


I have actually listened to several radios and have experimented with
different bandwidths, which is something you haven't done but I noticed
being ignorant doesn't slow you down a bit.

Sorry to get a little technical with you as I realize you are a pretend
digital engineer.

Be a hard-headed, calcified old fart, who is so set in his ways, he's
like a marble statue.


The problem for you is that you have a tin ear for life. Young or old
you will never know what sounds good.
