Captain Morgan Shortwave 6950 AM 0603z+ 4-1-2017
« on: April 01, 2017, 0605 UTC »
A little over S9, strong, audio overdriven.  Running some sort of a mashup between 'Honkeytonk Women' and 'Mama Told Me Not To Come'
0606z Twilight Zone theme music.
0607z More music mashups, Steppenwolf's 'Magic Carpet Ride' and another classic rock tune with ride in the lyrics somewhere.
0611z A little Stevie Wonder into the same 'let it ride' track (Bachman Turner Overdrive).
0614z David Bowie 'Lets Dance' (audio pretty thin, not much below 400 Hz).
0617z Twilight zone theme again.
0618z Steve Miller Band 'Jet Airliner'
0620z 'Abracadabra'
0628z Off, then back on with CoolAM style ID 'Captain Morgan Shortwave'
0630z Santana feat. Michelle Branch 'The Game Of Love'
0633z ID, and signoff

Carrier about 6949.583 KHz Here, but its been a while since I've cal'd the RX.

Thanks for the show.

Hmmm...spellcheck anyone?
