00:25z ID
00:26z dang, that awful buzz tx just kicked on
00:34z "...you and I have escaped the world of reality..."
00:41z shoutout to listeners
00:46z music suddenly stopped "...man, what the hell happened there?...a little bit of this..a little bit of that...that's how we keep things going..."

VOCR, 6925.2u, 9-22-11, SINPO 25332
Not a real strong signal here in Chicago, but coming though with a bit of static crash.

Heard what sounded like an Audioslave tune, then Capt. Ron passed the mic to someone else.
Clear ID at 0016z.

0126z - back from dinner and VOCR still running pretty good. Capt. Ron talking about Lex's comments.
0141z - Capt. Ron signing off with email address and a final Rage Against The Machine tune.

A bit stronger signal at the end of the show. About S3 on peaks.

Thanks for the show Capt. Ron.

Fair into North Georgia, in between the static crashes. Station ID at 0021, mentioning someone from Canada, also thanking listeners. Also talking about forth-coming QSL cards. 6924.2 or there abouts. Decent audio.

Thanks for the broadcast!

Same heard here, Captain Ron on 6925.2 USB playing Audioslave, chatting in studio, mentioned QSLs.  Signal peaked well around 0015z, faded a bit since then.
0105z: Still chugging along nicely with some good clear peaks above noise, playing Red Hot Chili Peppers now.
0112z: CR chattering about a ground plane antenna with no radials (did I hear that correctly?).  Sez Red Mercury is eating way too much taffy or candy corn?
"Taking sides, drawing a line in the sand, good vs evil... regardless of the man...".  DimBulb is "almost Canadian"?  (Is that like "almost pregnant"?)
Hey, The Abyss isn't a crappy movie - there's very brief wet, semi-drowned, semi-nekkid Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio getting chest compressions, if you catch my drift.
0119z: Some Rage AtM
SINPO=43333, occasional strong peaks, some fades to just above noise level (QRN and local RFI).  Audio seems good when it's well above the noise.  Mic audio and level seems good too.
