2214 UTC Man announcer with ID and short talk, into UNID EZ listening pop ballad-man singer
2218 UTC Man announcer with ID and I believe I heard a ".com" in there. Hard do copy the talk, maybe a bit overmodulated? Into "Fairies Wear Boots"-Black Sabbath
2224 UTC Man announcer with ID, and ID'd next song. "?"-?
2230 UTC Man announcer with email address and mention of "visit our website", into "Windy"-Association
(Per the NRD-515, frequency about 6925.3 KHZ. Best in USB here and a tweak of the fine tuning knob)
2233 UTC Man announcer with ID, into UNID song
2236 UTC "Take Five"-Dave Brubeck
2242 UTC Man announcer with clear ID as Free Thinker Radio! Followed by "The Man Who Sold The World"-Nirvana
2247 UTC Man announcer with ID..."Free Thinker Radio", into "Gaucho"-Steely Dan
2253 UTC Man announcer, then UNID song
2257 UTC Man announcer with ID and "atrain", followed by "Orange County Suite"-Doors
2303 UTC Man announcer with ID, email, mention of Episode 8, then OFF
Thanks for the excellent tunes FTR!!! Nice to finally hear an episode of Free Thinker Radio!

I have their carrier on 6925.3 Khz.  Tuned in during "Windy".  This was followed by a quick ID, which I could not understand.  Then, Florence and the Machine with "Howl".  Music audio sounds decent, the microphone audio is a bit muddy with a bit of a hum.  S8-S9 in NY.

Band is starting to go long for me at 2240, right after "Take 5".  Switched to an SDR radio, with extended talk by OM.  ID sounded like it could have been "Free Thinker Radio", with you host A-Train.  Now at 2243, Nirvana's version of MWSTW.

Mostly S8 here @ 2254.  Audio is a little narrow, but decent copy when the pescs are quiet.

As far as I can tell, the email address was freethinkerradio@gmail.com I sent an email and it didn't bounce, so maybe this is correct :) Nope! Listened back to some of the ID's and refmo is correct with freeradioforthefreethinker@gmail.com
