S8 to S9 here, started with Russian anthem, ID and into what i believe was "Happy Hour" by the Housemartins @ 2315,  Haven't heard that in a long time.
Seems kind of noisy tonight, but decent copy.  Good sounding audio quality.
"Bad Blood" by Bastille @ 2330
"Rock Me Amadeus" @ 2333

Great signal here in southern jersey. Been a while since a pirate' signal has been this strong since Halloween.

The RFW signal is crashing here, revealing a Russian 12 tone modem underneath. How ironic.

Gone now for me.

I'm not sure what a 12-tone modem sounds like, but I have something on 6947-ish USB that sounds sort of like rtty but not quite.
