Just barely audible music heard directly here near Seattle, but I'm mostly listening via the Lodi, New York, SDR, which has a S7ish signal with very good audio and not much noise ...

0356 UTC: Female-voiced ID and mention of HFU, then "Flaws" by Bastille.
0359 UTC: "Lemon to a Knife Fight" by The Wombats.
0402 UTC: "Bad Blood" by Bastille.
0406 UTC: "Tokyo (Vampires & Wolves)" by The Wombats. The station switched to 6920 USB during the song.
0410 UTC: "Send Them Off!" by Bastille.
0413 UTC: "Lethal Combination" by The Wombats.
0416 UTC: Female-voiced ID; she said to post to the HFU board to get an eQSL. That was followed by "Icarus" by Bastille.
0419 UTC: "Give Me a Try" by The Wombats.
0423 UTC: "Of the Night" by Bastille.
0427 UTC: ID and eQSL announcement again into "Techno Fan" by The Wombats.
0431 UTC: "Quarter Past Midnight" by Bastille.
0434 UTC: "Greek Tragedy" by The Wombats.
0438 UTC: "Laura Palmer" by Bastille.
0441 UTC: ID and eQSL announcement, then "1996" by The Wombats.
0446 UTC: "Weight of Living, Pt. 1" by Bastille.
0449 UTC: "If You Ever Leave, I'm Coming With You" by The Wombats.
0452 UTC: ID announcement, then "Joy" by Bastille.
0455 UTC: Off.

Thanks for the great music on this late Saturday night! This station's name, while self-explanatory, has me pondering how the French Revolution might have been different if it had been fought by wombats.
