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!?

The Spinners, The Moody Blues, The Capris, Frida

Signal at 6960 started loud and clear at about S9+10 at 0200 UTC, but faded out at 0213 to barely above the noise.
Switched to 4032 kHz USB and it's a bit better.

0231 UTC Hey there Delilah (fucking love this song)
SINPO 25323 from grid square EN62ax Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Listening on Airspy HF+ Discovery connected to a horizontal loop 5 ft up (it's my fence) resonant on 5259738hz, performs rather well in this range though. EQSL card or physical qsl would be much appreciated! I've not received any qsl cards from our lovely free radio providers yet!
