managed to hear Debate on Pacific island
 
Here in faraway Taiwan, the news mentioned the Final Presidential
Debate so I decided to give it a listen. First scanning all local AM,
FM, and TV stations for any rebroadcasts and finding none, perishing
any thoughts of Internet listening on my little modem, I turned to the
trusty shortwave. Sure enough on 16 meters I was able to find the
only VOA channel that China forgot to jam that day, maybe because it
was in English, and managed to mostly hear the broadcast.

Cool..!

- Myself.. Coming home on the NYC Subway at ~9:30 ; I found that, if I stood
REAL close to the doors while the train was ~20 feet below street level, I
could pick up Some of the broadcast on local A.M.
on my Sangean DT110
- But quite seriously, congratulations on that catch and thanks for reporting
it

Dan / NYC
