I'm kind of reluctant to move this radio because then I'll have to re-arrange ALL of the darn furniture in the living room (wife is a bit OCD). Icon_lol

I think I'll try setting up a long wire antenna in the attic for it this weekend. Before we moved, I had a long wire antenna running around my back porch, and the radio worked great.

It's not how bad you mess up, it's how well you can recover.
