Pretty good signal and audio coming in directly here northeast of Seattle; I'm also seeing a S7 signal at the Northern Utah SDR ...

0231 UTC: "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" by Cyndi Lauper.
0234 UTC: Man on the mic saying he hopes listeners are enjoying the broadcast, then "Mr. Roboto" by Styx, a song I have a particular fondness for.
0240 UTC: "You guys on the Underground, you rock," the host said. He then talked some more, then played a bit of "Soda City Funk" before getting back on the mic.
0241 UTC: "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath.
0247 UTC: Host shouted out me, and gave the email address again: bandaidradio@tutamail.com.
0248 UTC: "Highway to Hell" by AC/DC.
0251 UTC: Host on the mic again, repeated that QSL cards are coming soon, then "Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen.
0255 UTC: Host on the mic again, then "Africa" by Toto.
0301 UTC: "Footloose" by Kenny Loggins. Noise and fading are starting to increase on this signal.

Thanks for the broadcast, Band Aid Radio. Have to go upstairs for dinner!

Songs are identified with Shazam if needed. I usually use KiwiSDR receivers. Reception from my QTH is using a Hermes Lite 2 with a 40 meter band Inverted V at 40 feet.
