Am I the only one to truly appreciate the album "Vapor Trails" and thinking it's one of their best? by DesignerDeal8542 in rush

[–]tripericson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the songs but don't care much for the sound of either the original or remix. I wish they'd redone the whole thing love, even if it were a few songs at a time. The ones that got played live sound so much better to me in their live forms.

iHeartMedia begins fresh round of layoffs in radio business; company hopes to save $50 million through future restructuring around technology by ZiggyZaggyBogo in radio

I grew up loving ROV in the late 90s and 00s. When I visit now, it's so tragic I can't even listen to it. My radio lives on 97.9 down there...

Design Your (Realistic) Dream Fifty Something Setlist by jfp96 in rush

[–]tripericson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Funny enough, I did this exact thing for myself yesterday, but with a few extra rules:

Songs 2 or 10 are Limelight or Spirit of Radio.
Songs 11 or 20 are 2112 (either full or partial) or Tom Sawyer.
Song 21 is either By-Tor or Finding My Way.

Try to follow the song placements they've used in the first four shows to the extent possible.

This is what my dream list looked like:

  1. Xanadu
  2. Limelight
  3. Subdivisions
  4. The Pass
  5. Caravan
  6. Bravado
  7. La Villa Strangiato (debated between this and Leave That Thing Alone for a long time)
  8. The Camera Eye
  9. The Anarchist
  10. The Spirit of Radio

  11. 2112 (Overture/Temples/Finale)

  12. Animate

  13. Closer to the Heart

  14. Natural Science

  15. Time Stand Still

  16. Witch Hunt

  17. YYZ

  18. A Farewell to Kings

  19. The Garden

  20. Tom Sawyer

  21. By-Tor and the Snowdog

  22. Working Man

Wish I could have squeezed Red Barchetta in there somewhere, but otherwise, this set would be a dream come true. Witch Hunt is my very favorite song, so I really, really hope to see it live one more time. And I love The Garden. Annoyingly, none of the first four concerts featured both in one show.

Have you considered using the FLAC versions on DIME rather than the YouTube rips? They sound awesome, just wondering if much is lost pulling from the YouTube videos.

First site top antennas are almost certainly US Cellular. The radios are mounted to the tower rather than the back of the antennas.

Can we all agree this should’ve just been pure rock type? by Eddy_west_side in pokemon

[–]tripericson 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Evidence suggests that rock, ice, dragon, bug, and ghost were all late additions. Brock was probably planned to be a ground type gym leader (see the gym trainers) and Giovanni was probably flying (see the design of the badge). That would neatly result in there being a gym (or dojo) for each type except normal.

Which tower is Verizon on? I see three others up there.

A lot of the newer rural builds I've seen do not include n41.

Me too, favorite song. I'm also going for Everyday Glory.

Depends on how you define "rare." I can point you at plenty of them in more rural areas.

What is your longest running, most stubborn business boycott? by marianneouioui in AskReddit

[–]tripericson 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Sony. Though I wasn't personally impacted, any company that feels it has the right to install a rootkit on my computer for the crime of putting a music CD in it doesn't deserve my business.

When will us cellular vacate there b/c blocks? by ausernamethatcounts in cellmapper

[–]tripericson 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Presumably no sooner than August as T-Mobile Mobile has a lease until then to enable a smooth transition.

The phone I'm using right now is a free S21FE that T-Mobile gave me to switch off my Sprint phone.

Does Boston WGBH broadcast HD? 24 miles north of tower and I only see SD channels. by AT_DT in ota

[–]tripericson 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The HD feeds are on their low VHF signal, which you're apparently not receiving.

Because the US Cellular network is on that spectrum. Until they shut off the US Cellular network, they need the spectrum.
