Nice S5 to S6 signal, a bit of noise and very slight "pulsing" QRM in the background, but still great copy.  Thanks for the Wednesday show, Relay Station 5150!

I had a hint of audio, but that was about it, which is better than usual.  I'm thinking I'm a tad too far south for this one.

I used to work in a bar where we cleared them out at closing time by playing "One Night In Bangkok" over and over again on the jukebox. We could generally count on them being gone before it got through it's second time around, and could stop the infernal noise. Good times.
