I'm coming to think I'm very lucky. I'm in a residential area and no one's
ever home and I have berry little noise around here. It is more now than it
used to be but it's really pretty quiet around here. Not like on vacation,
but nothing will ever be like that again for me I'm sure. It was a hole
street of summer places with a few year round places way down, my radio was
so quiet there you'd think the RF gain was way down or something I mean, the
lightest hiss was about it but when there was a station in there, I could
really pull them out easy. Not like that here, but from talking to people, I
am real lucky and I think most of that is the fact no one's ever around out
here. I suppose I'd better enjoy it while it lasts.
