... with the power of a broadcaster and the smooth voice of a seasoned host, X-FM is sounding GREAT tonight!

0043z S9+5 dB
0106z still holding nominally at S9+5 dB mon ami. Tnx for the show!
0123z band is not being so kind now, a little more QRN kicking up and average sig strength S8 but still a good copy!
0127z back to S9+5 dB!
0141z 2nd wind kicking in! Sig strength S9 up to S9+5 dB at times!
0151z Blasting in with peaks at S9+10 dB and constant at +5 dB now! Linda Ronstadt and "He's a magic man"
0213z bass notes CLEARLY come thru better on AM ... X-FM shows this time and time again .... S9 to S9+5 dB mon ami
0237z "Radar Love" never sounded so good! S9+5 dB ... Great sig X-FM!
0245z "When the Bullet hits the Bone" S9 +5 ... still GOOD copy!
0248z An annoying carrier came up about 500 Hz or so above the X-FM carrier (above in frequency, that is) ... now sounds like another station in there w/audio? Now it seems to be gone by 0251z ... Note: X-FM carrier is about 30 Hz high in frequency so this is a good way to verify who is who!
0303z "I'm on Mexican Radio" sig in the S9 to S9+5 dB
0315z And off? (stepped away and did not hear sign-off! Oops ... my bad)
0336z Thank goodness for bandscopes or would have missed this: X-FM rolling back in here after a significant band fade for a bit!
0344z S9 sig level ATTM but fades are becoming longer and more pronounced ...
0349z Genesis and showing S9+5 dB ...
0402z "Urgent" at just over S9 sig level ...
0424z ... into some electronic 'genre' music now ... this should be interesting on SW! Op also mentioned he's beginning to put the 'brakes' on the show now ...
0437z Shout-out to board members posting in this thread (Tnx X-FM) and a good evening to everyone.
0440z S9+5 dB and steady signal on final song ...
0444z Off and clear! Carrier gone ... the frequency is clear. Thanks X-FM!
