Title: WIND 6938 USB 2243 UTC 4 Jan 2023
Post by: DangerKitty on January 04, 2023, 2244 UTC
no ID so far
mx at 2243
S9+15, 44333, S+N: -55 dBm; SNR: 19
2245: sudden drop in signal strength
2246: signal strength back to original; soft rock music; quick fade outs and then back stronger
"Slow Down" - Hang Ten
2250: "Wrapped" - Drugstore Cowboy

2253: ID by OM: "WIND" (?)  I believe but not sure due to noise; ID repeated; break in audio
2255: more IDs, "How you all doing?"; audio now very weak in spite of S-meter reading (S9+15)
2257: now 14331; barely detectable
2323: Weird that others are still listening. I haven't heard one thing from WIND since about 2300. QRM from wideband signal overbearing WIND. When it faded out, it left in a hurry, here.

Thank you for the program!

I think it's gone. At least I hope it is. To quote the late George Zeller, "Quite possibly the worst thing I've ever heard on the radio." Bad audio, wimpy music. Work on your audio and play something loud and snotty.

Nope, wrong, they've come back up over the noise with that wimpy music. Get back in the noise!

I guess I'm "lucky"? I haven't been able to detect it for over 30 minutes.
NEXT!

Solid S5, peaking towards S9 at times. Audio is strong but a bit muffled.

Better signal on the Kiwi in Westminster,MD. w/ 250ft, V-beam pointed northeast. (I thought you guys were Yankees by your funny accents.) You have got to do something about that audio if you're going to do this regularly, sometimes it's too low, other times it cuts out, other times it's overdriven, and it's full of static much of the time.
