KIPM signal on 6955 USB is breaking my mind. S9+infinity. Seems to be same show as yesterday. Still fun to listen to. Love Alan Maxwell mindstreams.

Foxy AM signed on at approx 1754 UTC with a super huge signal in the Boston burbs. Announcer is live and said "standby for CW" then into CW.

Very good S8 signal here with old music that almost sounds like it would be in a Warner Bros cartoon at 1412 UTC and then into a vintage Hallmark card radio ad.

Heard this too, about S7. The spoken ID sounded like "Certified Laser Radio" or perhaps "Certified Loser Radio". The phonetics the female synth voice repeated were "certiti edloser", I think? Odd transmission.

Super S9+10 in the Boston burbs. Nice hearing KIPM again! A weird narrative about storm drains at 2028 UTC.

I have a weak-ish, S2 maybe, AM signal on 6970 AM for the last 20 minutes or so. Can't listen with wide bandwidth due to data just above it. Playing cinematic/operatic style music, for lack of a better word. Evidently no ID or announcer activity.

Universal Radio is closing shop. This one hurts. The Ostermans were really dedicated to SWL.

Sycko was heard here in the Boston burbs on my personal KiwiSDR with an 80m dipole. Not strong however, peaks to S3-S4 but some fades into the noise as well.

Stepped away to put a kid to bed, came back and Foxy is back on 6925 at 2310 UTC with Steely Dan. Good signal, S9 on my personal KiwiSDR. Music audio might be a little lower than announcer's audio. Overall very pleasant audio and signal though.

Foxy AM was on 6925 AM up until 2250 UTC with a good signal, played some bluesy rock for a bit, then the announcer complained peskies were on his freq and then he suddenly dropped.
