Yes, my friend... been doing it for years, now. Hmmm... since before you were 
in Kindergarten, in fact! ;)

You've gotta admire these guys' dedication! Most of them set-up in these tiny 
little cabins, (shacks) way up in places of "Arctic Tundra" and then haul as 
much as a half mile of wire into the trees for their antennas, just to pick up 
short excerpts of stations in the US or other areas. Some of them drag 
multiple wires out into the trees, and use a switchbox to select them. (These are 
Beverage antennas... highly directional & senstive.)

After thay go to all that trouble, the very least I can do is send them a 
confirmation e-mail, with a description of our station's transmitting facilities, 
and a link to the WEBsite where they can get more detailed info. :) Plus the 
fact that they are always so polite and respectful in their letters/e-mails.
