6930 USB SIO 222-322

Weak to fair signal with fading conditions - used my noise reduction unit for the overnight recording this time.

02:08z 'On The Road Again'- can't tell if it's Willie or a parody
02:13z unknown song
02:27z can just hear drums
02:30z 'Radio GA-GA' - Queen
02:35z "...Radio GA-GA..pirate radio..."
02:36z live Queen with crowd sing along
02:37z Elmer Fudd's 'Kill The Wabbit'
02:38z back to live Queen
02:40z 'Under Preasure'
02:42z SSTV, but too weak to decode

Audio: (complete show): http://archive.org/download/ShortwavePirateRadioCont/RadioGa-ga6930Usb0208z-0243z08-02-12.mp3

Also heard starting up here, with details as per the early part of Sealord's report, at good level.  We kept losing power here intermittently when crews finally arrived to replace the transformer which blowed up on the pole down the street, so I didn't have a good chance to hear or record the rest of the show.

Thanks RGG!
