Radio Free Whatever 6920 USB 2310 UTC 25 May 2025
« on: May 25, 2025, 2311 UTC »
2310: ID, "Free Ride" - Noshows
2314: "NOVOCAINE" - little image
2319: ID, talk of music, "The Bends" - Velvet Trip
2323: "Tell Me You Love Me" - Peach Pit
- getting deep fades, 3 to 1 and back; band is varying widely, with RFW, WDEF and SyCk0 not varying in sync with each other as far as strength

Thanks for another great show. It's good to hear you again.

2335 Just a hint of audio here today. Band seemed to die here right after Ion Radio signed off .. Solar flare?  I'll listen on MixLR

Sounding great on MixLR anyway!

2347 Signal a bit stronger now.
0012 A bit better but not the usual robust RFW signal ....

SINPO=14221

Same observation as Chris here. Just barely making out music and DJ DW on the mic. Can't copy most details, however, due to tough and noisy conditions.

2343- DJ DW is on the mic with HFU shoutouts. "Maybe I should've started a little earlier tonight...I don't know."
All reception direct-- From my location, radio and antenna.
QTH New Hampshire (70 miles north of Boston).

2157 Nice S9+10 signal with superb wideband audio.
