0020 UTC "Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer" (Just above the noise floor here)
0022 UTC OM with "W-A-N-K Christmas Special", then "Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer"
0025 UTC OM with ID, then another Hit and Run....poor Grandma  :D
0130 UTC "Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer"
0135 UTC OM with ID....I believe he said W-A-N-K Holiday Special and not Christmas Special

0141 UTC WANK intro song! Trololo? Followed by "Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer"-Elmo & Patsy
0155 UTC OFF I think!

Would be a pleasant surprise to find a WANK eQSL in the Christmas Stocking this year! Plenty of room in there along with the Anthracite and the Bituminous..... :)

Music at 0034z. Maybe SIO 322 trending 221. Rough copy at the moment. Band noise and occasional static crashing.

Thanks for the broadcast! :)

Is there ever too much Elmo and Patsy? Where did he go?

I just got a pm saying I got what I wished for. That's not exactly true, I issued a dare and WANK took me up on it, like any real pirate would.

More Elmo and Patsy, he's going to hit the two hour goal.

Signal peaking around S9+12 with a fair bit of fading (down to S9+8) above an S7 noise level (SINFO 55344). Any chance this is Ballsmacker Radio in disguise? That's the only pirate I've ever logged previously on this frequency.

I just confirmed that this is in fact Ballsmacker Radio by going to his website & verifying that his livestream matches this broadcast.

I believe it was strictly a coincidence that Ballsmacker happened to have Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer in their playlist for tonights show at 0206 UTC.....Next year my mantra will be "Say No to Elmo & Patsy"....and while we're at it, throw Mariah Carey in there for good measure.  ;)

You're right Skip. I had a brand new Continental Transmitter as Grand Prize, but after this, the dare is off!

Ballsmacker has ruined my memories of the bowling alley's of my youth and the slatterns that hung out in them, with his actions tonight,I de-pirate him.

Skip, you've got to let go of these hard feelings and embrace the monumental talent that is Elmo and Patsy

The actual Elmo and Patsy vid is up the page on that Youtube link and close captioned. Study it, there will be a test.
