Nice S7 signal into northern Ohio. I'm having trouble understanding what the operator is saying but the music is loud and clear.

2317 said for reports to be posted on HFU and FRN; "This is Radio Vixen International goodnight"

Signal has climbed from s3 at 2302 to s5-7 now (2317) "Alway Loving You", finding voice hard to copy here as well, pretty sure I caught an ID at 2303 but will have to review the audio file.

Just clear ID at 2318 by woman with slight British accent , and off

Thanks for the show.  QSL would be appreciated, audio file available.

Cheers, Terry

Caught the last 10-15 seconds of this one, as it signed off. Signal was good in GA, S8-S9.

To late for any details other than robotic voice.

Only caught the last 5 minutes. Solid S9 signal here. Listened with the filter 6 kHz wide. Nice audio, but it seemed like the levels were turned up & down at some points because the carrier was steady while the audio was varying. UK-sounding female computer announcer with sign off ID & requests for reports to HFU & Free Radio Weekly.

Please QSL!

Recorder catch:

6925 AM SIO 322-323 03-14-12

Fair to decent signal with little fade - modulation seemed a bit low making audio tough to hear.

Audio (23:05z-23:13z): http://www.archive.org/download/ShortwavePirateRadioCont/RadioVixenInternational6925Am2305z-2313z03-14-12.mp3

Thanks Radio Vixen International! :)
