1545z S7 signal in NH

Check out this page from the "real" WMR

   http://www.wmrscotland.com/wmr_latest_news.html

The "fake" WMR seems to have taken up the "real" ones offer and is airing the show he put together and posted on this page.

1547z Carly Simon - Your're So Vain

Thanks guys...

I heard Weekend Music Radio directly in the late 1980's. Sent a postal report and received a nice mailing including QSL, paper stickers, letter, and info sheet. Those were the days!

Here's my recording of the show from 1535-1606 UTC:
