Radio Free East Coast 6210 AM 2133 UTC 10 September 2016
« on: September 10, 2016, 2139 UTC »
Excellent reception on the 1936 Zenith 8S154, sounds like a music hall here.

2133z-2138z Three unid soft, instrumental songs
2144z Neil Diamond singing
2152z "Cracklin' Rosie"
2157z signal gone

Thanks for the Neil Diamond concert.  Best concert I ever attended was his performance for the "Beautiful Noise" album tour in August 1976 at Forest Hills Stadium in Queens (former US Open location).  He brought someone near us up on stage who held a clever homemade poster which read: "Serenade" us with some "Beautiful Noise"  on a "Hot August Night".

2200z Blips of music, reception even better...OM "The following Pirate Radio Program has been approved...."
2202z Unid country/rock song
2207z OM id's himself & station gives email and mailing address in Pennsylvania
2208z Unid early 50's song, OM singer
2213z OM "You are listening to Radio Free East Coast"
2221z "You have been listening to Radio Free East Coast this is PJ Sparx"
2225z Off air
