S9+ signal and good audio heard via the SDR in Fair Hill, Maryland, with moderate background noise; SINPO 45444 overall ...

2351 UTC: "Valley Girl" by Frank Zappa.
2353 UTC: The usual Valley Girl host welcoming listeners to the station's Halloween special. She talked about putting up an antenna, connecting it to a vintage radio, and hearing a numbers station with some strange effects.
2355 UTC: "The numbers feel like they're inside me now," the host said as she continued her story, later adding the numbers "feel friendly now."
2358 UTC: Host giving the usual email address for eQSLs: shortwavepirateqsls@gmail.com. She then started a new story about going to an eerie hamfest with her boyfriend and then hearing the Hawaiian numbers station, The Bell System, and other stations.
0002 UTC: The host is now talking about her phone's voice recorder automatically turning on at 2:13 a.m. every night and a haunted Bluetooth speaker.
0006 UTC: Talking about listening on Halloween night and hearing a spooky station right at 2:13 a.m. on 6972 kHz.
0009 UTC: Host still talking about Halloween-related radio weirdness.

I have to go walk our dog now, but thanks again for the fun program!
