Turtlehead Radio 6925 LSB "Tropic Thunder"
« on: April 18, 2012, 0624 UTC »
4/18/12, 6925 LSB, 0612z: Air check?  Just an audio clip from movie Tropic Thunder.  Never go full retard.
0631z: Heee's baaack... same Tropic Thunder audio clip, clear IDs for Turtlehead Radio, music.
0641z: More Tropic Thunder, Culture Club "Karma Chameleon"
0649z: Edwyn Collins "A Girl Like You".  Great song, suddenly seems to be experiencing a revival - has popped up recently on Radio Vixen and background music for a few YouTube videos.
0653z: Hole "Doll Parts", luv dat crazy Courtney.
0704z: "Rehab", RIP, Amy, ya crazy kid.
0709z: Tom Petty & TH, "Learning to Fly" (big signal jump during this song, S4-S5, not sure if propagation or station's power level). "You are listening to Turtlehead Radio, Voice of the Mentally (Handicapped?)..." (I'll hafta check my recording later).
0712z: Bob Marley "Jammin"
0732z: Mike + the Mechanics "Silent Running" - lotsa up and down peaks and fades
0737z: Weezer "Island in the Sun", Turtlehead ID, live on mic shout out (thanks!) and sign-off.

Will post recording to archives later this week.

Signal not strong here on the indoor antenna, maybe S2-S3 (better after 0700z), but even with occasional static crashes the noise is very low, so it's easy to copy the songs and most familiar bits, tho' I'm having trouble making out the "Voice of..." bits on the IDs.  SINPO=34433
