SIO 433 signal, unshazamable song.
Hey, it's RFW! Great to hear you again! It's been a while. Hope the band holds up.

Dickweed: My suggestion is to get a Mac  8)

Got you on 4065 USB!

Bad news, Comrade. foF2 is down to 4 MHz. Now this band is going long. How does 90 meters sound?  ;D

Nice signal this afternoon. First pirate station heard in the new room.
The signal has taken a dive. Barely audible now.
