XLR8 6955 USB 0300 UTC 29 Dec 2015
« on: December 29, 2015, 0302 UTC »
S6 with deep fades.  Playing "King of Kings" by Motorhead.
0305 - big fade to the noise, can barely tell something is there now. :(

0310 - still audible on the longwire, "Overkill" by Motorhead
0312 - "Ace of Spades"
0317 - back up to S6 with more Motorhead
Thanks for the ID, JC, I must have missed it during the fade.
0320 - caught the ID that time.
0325 - "Fast And Loose"
0400 - S6 to S7 with "Silver Machine" by Hawkwind

Thanks for the tribute show!

Great to hear the big sound again! Great audio at flamethrower levels. S20 with some fades at times. Thanks for the show and great to hear the old XLR8 again.

I just got a brand new IC-7200 radio and this is the first pirate station I have ever heard! Lots of fun. Before this I was using portables and never had any luck. I threw up a 100' longwire just to be able to listen. I am going to be upgrading of course. Is there a way to get a QSL card. I did not catch an address or contact info. Being my first I would really really like to get a QSL. That would be so cool.
