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!?

"Testing 1,2,3. Can anybody hear me?", 0100 Not Wolverine Radio! WDDR New Years Eve program.  Put off because of poor propagation that night. "Lets get to it." 'Southbound' - The Allman Brothers Band, DDJ commenting conditions are better then New Years, shout outs to HFU (including me), 'Down the Road' - Stephen Stills, DDJ announces song, explains NY eve., ID, 'Cinnamon Girl' - Neal Young & Crazy Horse, DDJ couple of SSTV coming up for HFU, 'Hurt So Bad' - Linda Rhondstadt, 'Back to the Family' - Jethro Tull, 77years old for DDJ and 18th anniversary of Wolverine R., 'Hungary Heart' - Bruce Springstein, DDJ,'Blood and roses' - The Smithereens, promised SSTV, ID, 'Walk Between the Raindrops' - James McMurty, DDJ, 'I Need a Man to Love' - Big Brother & The Holding Company & Janis Joplin.


S6 here.  Usual good signal.

Thanks for the show DDJ.

Started loosing signal shortly after I stopped keeping track of the songs.  Signal slowly has been weakening and weak by 0217.  Can hear SSTV at 0220.

0245  Signal back up: DDJ chat & ID into 'Crucifixion Lane' - Procol Harum, DDJ taking some limited requests & ID into 'Let's Stay together' - Al Green.  Decent signal - S5 here.
