Northwoods Radio 6925 USB 23:25 UTC
« on: October 31, 2013, 2329 UTC »
23:25 Just ID'd as Northwoods Radio.  Didn't see a thread for this station so figured I'd start one.
23:26 DJ Chatter ..."broadcasting from the Great Lakes" .... really good audio at this point.  Signal @ S9+20.  Either coming from across the lake or very local.

23:31 Heavy Metal music I don't recognize ....
23:37 Band named "Halloween" ...signal sticking strong S9 +20. Not fluttering or waving at all.

-- Is it me, or are there more stations than normal tonight?

23:54: This is Northwoods Radio ... [email protected]

DJ Chatter: Listening to a band called Halloween he heard in 1983 (junior in high school) at a kegger ....

23:55 "threatening the ionisphere for 13 years" .... made me chuckle.
23:56 More music from band "Halloween" .... signal fluttering a bit now, looks like band might be shifting a bit.

Recorder catch:

6925 USB

Signal ranged from decent to good with fading conditions and intermittent QRM, but otherwise a great show, especially the live format & the Helloween (great band!)

Audio (23:14z-00:05z): https://archive.org/download/Httparchive.orgdetailsShortwavePirateRadioCont2/NorthwoodsRadio6925Usb2314z-0005z10-31_11-01-13.mp3

Thanks for the show Jackpine Savage! :)

Also heard here in New Jersey at 2314 UTC on 6925U with sign on. Opened with wolf howl and ID: "Northwoods Radio." Heavy metal music followed. Weak signal tonight. It was great to hear you once again, Nortwoods Radio!

P.S. I still have your special Fall Harvest CD you sent me several years back, with the haunting melodies one the cedar flute by R. Carlos Nakai.

73's,
