You're a ****ing dumbass. Nobody DXes MW from inside a high-rise so
Homey must be after the content. If you want to listen to the content,
a web stream works better than a radio in a compromised location, ****wad.

It could be worse. We could catch whatever it is you came down with.

You're a ****ing dumbass. Nobody DXes MW from inside a high-rise so
Homey must be after the content. If you want to listen to the content,
a web stream works better than a radio in a compromised location, ****wad.

RHF has a point nevertheless. The statement that nobody DXes MW from
inside a high-rise is absurd, how does one prove or disprove that, or
even arrive at such a conclusion without making certain assumptions
that are not necessarily valid?

My first experience with AM radio DX was when I was about eight years
old listening to a cheap AM-only clock radio next to my bed in a
suburb of Buffalo, New York. No outside antenna, just the built-in
ferrite rod inside the radio. No elaborate receiver, just a clock
radio that cost about $10 in 1960s dollars. Yet it pulled in WBZ,
KMOX, KDKA, WLS, WLW, and numerous other clear-channel stations, some
running 50KW, others not.

I really didn't care about the content one bit. Today, frankly, I'd
care about the content even less. What I cared about then, and care
about now during my occasional forays into MW, was/is the ability to
sit here in New York picking up stations from Chicago, Pittsburgh,
Boston, St. Louis, Cincinnati, etc. That's the magic of the AM band,
once the sun goes down and the D-Layer absorption disappears.

Doing the same thing with an audio stream over the net is no big deal
at all. That's like saying my ham ticket is obsolete because you can
do the same thing over the Internet (communicate with people across
great distances). Well, number one, yeah you can use the Internet to
communicate over great distances, but that's not radio...and number
two, ask people in New Orleans how listening to audio streams over the
Internet worked out for them after Katrina hit.

I'll keep my ham ticket - and my broadcast band receiver.
