You will find that that different stations on different frequencies will vary through out the day. This is due to the effect called propagation. Besides commercial broadcast stations there are several other things to listen to. Aviation volmet, military HFGCS, ham operators, etc. It makes a display more interesting when visitors can actually hear wireless coming from a wireless vehicle.

Next step is to get your ham licence. It's very easy these days and allows you to put your set to full use. You and David could chat when his WS52 is on the air. Years back a group of 19 set users organized an event called Atlantic Hop. It was to communicate across the Atlantic using 19 sets. It was successful although operating from Vancouver I only made it as far as Brampton, about 3300 Km.
