Here also at 0004 UTC with Soviet Anthem in progress, sign on announcements by DJ Dick Weed who says no assistant Stephen tonight....solo! Into tune by the Black Keys. S9 here and great USB audio!
0110 UTC Close down announcement and off, then a short time after that an attempt at QSO with "If anybody's out there please respond". ?
I enjoyed the music tonight DJ Dw! Thanks for the email too...yes, it's a good tradition!

Tuned in at 0100 UTC on 6940 kHz USB with a phenomenal S9 + 30 db signal on my Eton e1 here in northern New Jersey. ID by DJ Dickweed, followed by music. Another ID loud and clear at 0104 UTC: "Nobody does rock like DJ Dickweed," followed by Little Dragon. DJ gave the e-mail address as DJDickweed@gmail.com before signing off at 0109 UTC.

Once DJ signed off, a male voice cam on frequency and said: "Comrade, where have you gone? Is anybody out there? Please respond." Nothing further heard here. Much weaker signal than Radio Free Whatever. DJ put a signal stronger than any other logged to date...I had to go in my back yard just to check and see if DJ was there! :)
 
Thanks for the show and music tonight, sir!

73's,
