S5 here with steady signal, playing rock music.  Sounding good RML!  Thanks for the show!!  Find your wallet?  GAP Band is sounding good!   I should note that I'm using my "new"  radio, a Drake SW8 with just the built in whip antenna.    Wow up to S9 now in USB, sounding great!

Heard it from another room during op talk, and I think this may be RML seeing who's out there tonight.

0313 RML ID
0321 ID, shouts, one more song...
0325 off, then on in LSB...then USB..."the Yoshi is very happy...", Wall of Voodoo - "Mexican Radio"
0335 The Fixx - "Red Skies", Clash - "Rock the Casbah"
0344 talk about HAARP..."imagine a show from there...we'd have to play Rocket Man..."   ;D
0355 73

The Yoshi's sounding good in AM tonight, RML!  and in USB also  
Thanks for the show!

Sounds like Red Mercury Labs.  S8 in the Mojave Desert.

(edit)  Yep, RML it is.

(edit 2)  Audio went slightly distorted after song ending at 0320z but was really decent sounding before that

(edit 3)  Went LSB and then USB ;)

Been hearing talk & music since 0310, but it's really faint here in the noise floor.
Signal started improving around 0343. Got up to about S6-7 by the end. It's in USB.

0323, talking - unintelligible
0328, Wall Of Voodoo - Mexican Radio
0332, talking - unintelligible
0336, Fixx - Red Skies
0340, DJ gab, still very faint
0341, Clash - Rock The Casbah
0345, DJ gab, can pick out some convo, signal improving a bit
0347, tune
0353, DJ gab
0355, === Off ===
0356, reciting numbers

=== Thanks Red Mercury for the k00l tunes!! ===
