222 UTC: Good signal and liking the music. Sitting back and listening as I waste money on on-line shopping for Christmas.

The signal dropped off during the last half an hour with increased noise.

Madness- "Our House". It wasn't recorded this time of year. Front man Suggsy took football season off to follow his favorite Premier League teams. No wonder The Specials and The Beat sold more records. About an S-8 on the W.PA KIWI w/ the really big loop.

Downloading a live stream of pirate broadcast? Didn't Al Fansome issue a rule against that?

Very weak signal with some audio heard from time to time. Wish conditions were better.
