I’ve been away from Bootcamp for a while — a combination of travel and an office move which put me on the north side of the building, away from the satellite signal. But after some fiddling, I found a spot for my antenna where there’s just enough signal from a repeater to give reception with no dropouts, though I’m sure that I’m not getting the best signal that XM can deliver.
It’s going to be a challenge to get caught up before the official end of Bootcamp (especially since I’ve got all-day meetings Monday and Tuesday of next week), but I’m going to do it — though that means shorter reviews (and at least one member of my reading audience will approve of that change!).
Top Tracks is today’s Bootcamp choice. I expected to like it, and I do — it plays familiar Classic Rock tracks, though its playlist is clearly deeper than that of the local Clear Channel classic rock outlet, KUFX/98.5, and so I’ve heard songs I hadn’t heard in many years, a rare event when listening to FM.
It’d be nice if the channel had a bit more personality, but it’s still worthy of a preset.
