Male talking about pirate radio, voice sounded a bit like George Zeller but not positive, ended 0133
Grasscutter and Sunshine Radio ops talking 0138 said it was a joint show, someone must be playing an old recording.
0142 A little Stealer's Wheel now "Stuck In The Middle"...
0145 Banter between Sunshine and Grasscutter, Sunshine gave a couple of websites that I didn't copy, into CCR tune.
0227 Dr. Benway comes on and explains the "fookin' slob" expression and later says it was George Zeller at the Fest.
Good night good doctor.. ;)

Relay of a Grasscutter and Sunshine joint show.

Big wide USB signal with nice audio at S9 here.

The preceding AM, about the little Swiss futbol team that almost could, was around S9+5.

Thanks for the relay, Dr. Benway!

S9 here.  Some pesc qrm.  Grasscutter and Sunshine talking at 0146z then into 'Down on the Corner'. Very good audio.  Some ground-loop hum (may be from the original broadcast).

S9 in KCMO. Heard Billy Joel at 1:40 & Creedence at 1 :49.  very respectable sounding signal. The op talk has a spacy echo that I find annoying though.  Ozzy at 1:51z.
Thanks form the show...y'all

Fair/weak signal. Audio sounds tighter than it did the last time I heard them about five years ago. I'm assuming it's a relay of one of their old shows, not that they're back with new equipment (although that'd be nice). "Crazy Train," "Sunshine of Your Love," etc.
Thanks to whoever for the show!

Tuned in kind of late at 0220Z, music in progress.  Grasscutter and Sunshine show relay, their ID at 0227Z with a lot of reverb.  Dr Benway (UCR) then on until 029Z and off.

S9, very good audio, little QRN.

Recorder catch:

6925 AM & USB  *0129z-0230z*

Flamethrower signal & great audio!  Undercover Radio starting off show in AM with George Zeller audio bit from the 2013 Winterfest then into Grasscutter & Sunshine Radio relay with closing comments from Dr. Benway at EOS - he mentioned using a tin can at the beginning for a "..mysterious.." effect.  I miss G&SR, they we're fun to listen to!
