SDRplay RSP2/RSPdx  w/SDRuno or SDRconnect SW ; N-S 43M Dipole /  Disclaimer: Shazam/Sound-Hound used to ID many songs.

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!?

Very solid S7 signal without much noise (a nice change from recent days!) being heard via the Fair Hill, Maryland, SDR ...

0003 UTC: "Seeds and Stems (Again)" by Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen.
0004 UTC: OM on the mic with an ID and a welcome to this show about drug songs, then "The Needle and the Spoon" by Lynyrd Skynyrd.
0008 UTC: Canned ID: "This is VFO Radio, your favorite pirate station," then "Amphetamine Annie" by Canned Heat.
0011 UTC: Canned ID ("We're just here to crash the party. VFO Radio.") into "Cocaine" by J.J. Cale.
0015 UTC: OM on the mic with a "thanks for listening" and mention of HFUnderground, then "The Acid Queen" by The Who.
0018 UTC: Canned ID with "King of the Hill" clip into "Snortin' Whiskey" by Pat Travers. The signal's still OK, but it's closer to S5 now as the noise level on the band increases.
0022 UTC: Canned ID into "Sweet Leaf" by Black Sabbath.
0027 UTC: OM on the mic mentioning Ozzy's last show ever, then ID and intro into the next song, "The Pusher" by Steppenwolf.
0034 UTC: Canned VFO ID into "Purple Haze" by The Jimi Hendrix Experience.

Thanks for this evening's music, VFO!
