"Boombox Radio" 6938 AM 0030 UTC 14 Feb 2013
« on: February 14, 2013, 0031 UTC »
Just tuned in, hearing some music, S9 signal.

Checking the SDR recording, sign on was 0022z. The signal mostly faded out around 0052z.

Fair S6 signal:

0043z: Underworld "Rez"
0044z: ID, but I couldn't make it out.  Was ".....Radio"
0045z: Dan Croll "From Nowhere"
0047z: Male announcer, mentioned Twitter and Boombox Radio Show.  Verbal audio a bit tough to make out here.
0049z: Zedd "Clarity"
0057z: ID "Boombox Radio"
0101z: More announcements / ID by fast talking DJ.  Maybe a relay of a commercial station?
0117z: Announcement by "DJ Liquid Todd" and "Playing the best remixes that I can find...Boombox Radio Show"
0122z: gmail address repeated under heavy reverb and off

Hi this is DJ LT of Boombox Radio... yes this was a rebroadcast of BoomBox Radio from Sirius/XM.
Sorry about the poor ID at the end. The correct email for us  is boomboxshortwave@gmail.com  [someone already took boomboxradio@gmail.com, of course!]  Send us a correct report and we'll QSL.  This was our first transmission, and 6937.5 is the only crystal we have, sorry no 6925!
