Mike--

I hope you will report on what you hear from your friend at WW1. I didn't
hear any of yesterday's game but I have heard a number of games where they
must have had a very difficult time keeping the crowd noise out of the
talent mics, or else they're just mixing in too much ambient in the truck.

Really annoying if I'm listening to a faraway signal that might be kind of
noisy at my location (WWL for example).
