Zoidberg:
Not sure if this is Radio True North or other:
5/12/13, 6925 AM, approx. 0300z: Joe Satriani "Summer Song", Bryan Adams "Summer of '69", possibly "Hot Summer Day" by It's a Beautiful Day, others I couldn't ID.  Voice ID, not sure if Radio True North or other.  Rough conditions here.

Osborne White:
Been hearing them about S = 5 with S = 4.8 noise for the last half hour, OM announcer, mainstream / metal-type music, occasional live announcements, etc.  If they stay on long enough, the band should clear up (static crashes etc.) and it should all be made clear to me here, but until then....

Osborne White
WMMR etc.


EDIT:  Now I see that it is Radio True North relaying Radio Ronin!

THANKS for doing the lord's work, RTN!  Signal might be improving, we shall see!

EDIT EDIT at 0355 GMT:  Coming in a lot better now, S = 9 and the noise floor is staying put at S = 5 or so, static crashes have diminished, seems like the band is lengthening a bit, QSB somewhat, but the hifi AM signal is making the trip, gonna switch from the TS-850 to the ultra-hi-fi R-390A & stereo amp etc.  Tnx again RTN and Ronin!  Wowie Zowie!

EDIT EDIT EDIT at 0425 GMT:  As predicted, condx improved vastly since local sunset, no more static crashes to contend with here, just a little QSB, using the 4 kilocycles filter on the old R-390A, THANKS for the shout-outs, & Mrs. White sez to tell you "hiya!"  I appreciate the later evening hours, here in the west coast flatlands there are not that many broadcasts to copy (vs. back east) BTW "Snoopy vs. the Red Baron" (I am pretty sure that's the title) was one of the first 45's that I bought with my allowance, I think in 1966 or 1967, I hadn't even started smoking  yet then (I started smoking when I was nine, so....) Very very cool program, Sir!



EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT:  From the Department of Redundancy Department, YOU, Sir, are the COOLEST !  This  per Mrs. White, and I heartily concur!  She still knows the entire lyrics to "Angel in the Centerfold," in fact, she sang 'em for me along with the record, and, unlike when she gave her performance in grammar school, she now knows what the song is actually referring to!   And she wondered back then why her teacher was horrified....Still  S = 9 plus on the TS-850 w/QSB, just checked, but I prefer the ultra-hi-fi R-390A etc.   Can't quite see the carrier level meter without my hearing aid, so....

RadioTrueNorth:
Doing a relay for Radio Ronan.....

RCCI:
03:46 I heard the carrier some time ago - but I am having a real go picking up the music. Barely above an S2 for my QTH in Illinois

RadioTrueNorth:
Signal should get better as night goes on.....Sun just starting to set here....After this back to live programming....
