This is an impressively adult response. When Barry gives me that

Maybe it's because someone has to counter the puffery. I've shown my 
face here going back to the Fidonet days. You're the new kid on the 
block. If my "Where in the World is Carmen IBUZ" data is worthless 
use your delete key. The last time I looked the Northeast was one of 
the country's major population centers. What happens here is likely 
to represent what happens in other areas. It's also very congested 
and any flaw in the technology is going to show up here. Almost every 
tiny town has a radio station.

In addition, most who post about the technology and the receivers 
seem to experience the same things I do. Not many report the awesome 
reception you do.

Clients do pay me to pay attention to the technology and publications 
pay me when I write for them.

If I could figure out how to explain why someone should buy one my 
receiver would probably be on Ebay. The promises aren't being fulfilled.
