Zoidberg:
Just heard ID for Red Mercury Labs after rock song I didn't recognize.  Only fair via eastern SDR, will try home tuner.
0242z: Commentary on 4th Amendment
0300z: Wall of Voodoo "Mexican Radio"
0307z: Reading online logs, mentioned HFU.
0311z: CCR "Run Through the Jungle"
0315z: RML IDs, 6940 USB in the manliest of modes.  Lynyrd Skynyrd "Man a Simple Bee"
0330z: Sounded like Perry Farrell from Jane's Addiction or Porno for Pyros, not sure.
0335z: Shout out to Wm. K. Hertz and FRC, Cars "It's All I Can Do", "Moving In Stereo".  I remember seeing The Cars at their peak, around 1979-81.  They ripped into "Got A Lot On My Head" and put on a great show.  Not much spontaneity but very polished.
0354z: After Simple Minds "Don't You Forget About Me", closing comments and sign-off.

Rough copy at first, better after 0300z:
SINPO=33243 via east coast SDR - much louder summer QRN
SINPO=32333 via home receiver - much louder ute QRM

By sign-off time, signal was much clearer on my home receiver with indoor antenna than via eastern web tuner.  Still some significant propagation shifts well after dark this summer.

Echo_One:
OP chatter at 0242 UTC and ID.

Shout out to HFU.

Gave email address but was too weak for me to catch it.

Flash by Queen at 0245 UTC - I know that anywhere as it is one of my all time fav Queen songs. Thanks for playing it, RML - greatly appreciated.

I must say, RML, that it is very nice to hear you, old chap. Thank you for the quality broadcast

myteaquinn:
S-3 signal fighting the noise but still listenable here.

paddletom:
RML S9 here in San Antonio. Playing some Queen.

If you haven't tried a magnetic loop you should. They really null out the noise.

Markokpik:
Red Mercury Labs, 6940 USB, 0238, 8/4/13.  Rock, ID, frequency, talk by Op., song by Queen, more Op. talk with ID.

Fair, S5
