Ballsmacker Radio 6960 AM 0157 UTC 9 Dec 2023
« on: December 09, 2023, 0158 UTC »
0157: IS, almost wiped out by qrm from wideband signal just above 6960; have to catch in LSB mode
also pesky qrm
Think this is Ballsmacker Radio
pretty tough copy
0206: "Here Comes The Sun" - Beatles
0210: qrm from above now gone; signal pretty clean, relatively speaking; 35333

Thank you for the broadcast!

Well, it's come to this: It's midnight and I'm listening to a heavy metal cover version of "The Wheels On The Bus Go Round and Round" on pirate short wave radio on Sternradio. Is life great, or what!?
