::: Quite fine AM radio broadcast for the most part. Check samples to stick yr toes in the H20 or for pleasure precursors.
::: Warts: Occasional very brief bits of reception static, mostly repaired. Light distortion at times & increases in #8. Fixed most dullspots & dropouts, but surely missed a few. #11 has a 3 second spt removed where the sound dropped out, but it's ain't too noticeable.
