"Oh you have internet on your boat in the wild?"

No. Definitely not. Weird thing is that I'm oddly outside (ie. underneath) most radio waves, so it's hard for us to reach out and 'see'. Actually, even on the "FM" dial, we can only get a few stations in our 'bowl', oftentimes only after sunset. (Most of my finds are AM or other).

Rockin' Bon Jovi out of Alaska while in Somewhere BC Canada is somewhat entertaining... more or less we listen to the solar powered radio(s) after the sun goes down, and write in my book what frequency occurs when, and from where. For what it's worth, I can tell by accent anymore where a radio station is positioned.

    I grew up in the Rockies, pre-cable for the area and when satellite was too expensive for hoi polloi. There were no near translator/booster stations and we got just one TV channel that wasn't mostly static. Similar with radio. Had to wait for the FCC regs to let them turn up the watts at night to clearly get more than the single local station which was half in Spanish which I never picked up much at all. :P
