The antenna tower video made me queasy. It also reminded me of this bit about that new huge ass tower in Dubai -

To wash the 24,348 windows, a horizontal track has been installed on the exterior of Burj Khalifa at levels 40, 73 and 109. Each track holds a 1,500 kg (3,300 lb) bucket machine which moves horizontally and then vertically using heavy cables. Above level 109, up to tier 27 traditional cradles from davits are used. The top of the spire, however, is reserved for specialist window cleaners, who brave the heights and high winds dangling by ropes to clean and inspect the top of the pinnacle. Under normal conditions, when all building maintenance units will be operational, it will take 36 workers three to four months to clean the entire exterior facade.
*Bold emphasis added by me.

That is at present sounds in player HM-801 are reproduced not naturally. Not in that place where they should sound on frequencies.

Tell, it probably to correct in new firmware? Thanks.

Good-bye!

My response - "You need better translation software."

Reminds me of my favorite line from Rush Hour (movie) - "Do you understand the words that are coming out of my mouth?"
