Toynbee Radio 6900.6 AM 0038 UTC October 31, 2015
« on: October 31, 2015, 0041 UTC »
0038 UTC OM with spoken word, into UNID rock tune at 0039 UTC
0043 UTC OM with ID but all I caught was "radio"...then OFF
(Hmmm...will have to listen back on the recording for this one! 8))

Yep! Finally heard this with audio :) Listened back on the recording and OM said Toynbee Radio at least twice at 0043 UTC. I'll give this a couple more listens in the morning when my ears stop ringing from the static and noise from all the activity this evening!
Thanks Toynbee Radio! I think I came in just when you signed on...awesome! Elusive 8)

EDIT: Listening back on the recording this morning and too much noise for good copy, but I can hear the following...
0038 UTC UNID sounds followed by OM mentioning "Messages are all the same"...one-Do nothing? two ? three ? (word Jupiter heard), then something about "personal orbiting satellite musical",into UNID sort of punk rock tune followed by OM with a mention of Toynbee Radio and possibly a "gmail" in there. I guess I'll have to keep trying for a clear signal one of these days :'(

SDR recording catch, 0030 sign on. Tough, SIO 222 here.
Definite Toynbee Radio ID at sign off.
