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!?

S7 to S9 signal heard via the Lodi, New York, SDR with very good audio that's staying well above tonight's noise ...

0314 UTC: "Art Bell" talking about shortwave radio gear and how MARS transceivers are the gold standard.
0316 UTC: "Some Velvet Morning" by Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazlewood.
0317 UTC: Art interrupts the song and then tells a story about going to the North Pole and finding Santa had disappeared. Then the elves turned to cannibalism; 77LJS was referenced at the end of the story.
0321 UTC: "Jingle Bell Rock" by Bobby Helms.
0324 UTC: Art now saying that eggs have gotten "too round" and taste worse.
0327 UTC: "Bad Moon Rising" by Creedence Clearwater Revival.
0329 UTC: Art complaining about the UNID Tones pirate station, calling it "auditory waterboarding." But he loves numbers stations, even the fake ones. He then read a ranting poem about UNID Tones.
0333 UTC: "Hazy Shade of Winter" cover by The Bangles.
0336 UTC: Art now ranting about winter.

I'm off to a late dinner now, but thanks for broadcasting another episode with Art!

Very entertaining Art Bell commentary mentioning HFU
And UNID Radio . . .
Art doesn't like quality of HFU logs
0307 sounds like wrapping up the show
