Always happy to hear a nice broadcast-quality AM signal, strong int W3HFU SDR 0210, Free Falling by Tom Petty, not really my thing but yay it's real radio.
Big into SWDX late 70s through early 90s, then forgot about it and when I returned via SDRs it wasn't at all what I remembered, but I'll deal with it. Grumble, grumble. All SDRs acknowledged, nothing is from my own radio.
