S7 or better here in the Mojave Desert (with an S1 noise floor, so good readable signal), heard ID of "KUNT Radio" and "Captain Dave".  Signal is strong, but audio is a little thin, lacking low end and top end.  It looks like the audio bandpass is about 400 Hz to 3 .0 kHz.  The 3.0 kHz top end is not uncommon for USB (some stations are using up to 4+ kHz though) but the 350-400 Hz low end is hurting the audio.  Outside that audio is good and loud, clean, and not overdriven.

At 0220 Pirate Dan back on with QSL information. Short announcement of about two minutes. He said that he would be leaving the band for a while.
Thanks for the broad cast and if you would my email is [email protected].
Very good signal by the way showing an S5+ here.
Send your name and address for a real honest QSL card.

Noted on SDR recording with test tones at 0143, brief hard rock at 0144 that might have been Judas Priest's "Green Manalishi." Off after a few seconds. S9+10 signal when it was on, stronger than Wolverine was, but noisy.

0147 back on with "Green Manalishi" Judas Priest
0151 OM "This is K U N T Radio." Then some silence.
0157 OM "This is K U N T Radio returning to the airwaves." Wondering who is out there for maildrop. Can't quite make out everything being said, but signal came back up. Will be full AM 1,000 W when up and running in the future. "This is K U N T pirate radio." Silence at 0158.

Recording of announcement at 0157: https://youtu.be/7r3jgiLRwZ4

If you would like my physical mailing address, please contact me at the email address in my signature.

Thanks for the brief show! Looking forward to hearing you in the future.
