to a guy wire of a 5 kW AM station, feeding a KEF 105 speaker. It sounded
wonderful.

I'm only half a mile away from the towers and I don't need a single
tuned crystal nor does my TV or computer bug it.

I'm not sure why IBOC means much to RRS but then again the IBOC
whiners' cabal/snake reproductive schemers that post these retarded
flaming marshmallows minus chocolate and graham crackers and their
hairdressers do.

When I was restoring a ca. 1915 loose-coupler crystal set, I was
actually startled by how good it sounded. No pesky IF or AF stages to
add distortion or pass band limiting!
