MrFixr55,

Thanks. I guess I need to hire Cousin Brucie? Nope, that isn't going to happen.

I have been very pleased with my SSTRAN ever since Debbie bought the kit for me for my birthday several years ago. It's too bad they are no longer available (unless you find a used unit on the auction site). I actually had mine shut down for more than a year, only putting it back into service recently to give me something to listen to on AM radio, since all I can pick up around here is a Spanish station, a few talk stations (weak), and a couple oldies stations (very weak).

I had a Talking House transmitter several years ago - model 4.6 - and I never could get the hum out of it. I sold it.

Actually, I don't listen to AM very often. I prefer FM, and for that, I stream JIB on the Web over a home FM transmitter. I used to run my own beautiful music playlist, but I prefer hearing JIB's announcers in between the good music.

Oh, and thank you for your kind words and deeds!
