I think I've heard a deep voice & some tolling bells. Weak signal & a lot of noise

Sounded like an ID at 2319: "Radio ------"

Song including the lyrics "Take You Higher" . . . oops, I should've gotten that one!

Clear Midnite Radio ID on an SDR. Would be great if this station returns!

Nazareth "Hair of the Dog," ZZ Top "Heard it on the X"

Wow, new show & requesting posts on HFU! I think it's been 34 years since I heard Midnite Radio (at least I assume this is the 1990 SW pirate and not someone using the same name)

2333 - "Hair of the Dog" Nazareth
2340 - OM with ID and mention of HFU, S7 peaks

2226 UTC: Carrier seen, but the audio's way down in the noise, barely audible, even when I switched from an Ohio SDR to one in Washington, D.C.
