Radio Free Whatever. It's big, yep. S9+40.

0103 RR N/A
0106 RFW ID, apologia for transmitter problems
It's big
-
Heard a few seconds of RFW sign on music at 0104.
S9 here, but really really high noise levels.
-
Big carrier here too. One of my comrades with the Soviet Anthem instrumental.
0107 Dick Weed IDing and talking about equipment trouble.
-
S7 here, hearing Dickweed in the crazy huge noise here tonight.
"Panic Station" by Muse @ 0111z
In USB @ 0253z with a Blur song. Still S7.
Noise is finally starting to subside, "Heaven Beside You" by AIC @ 0310z

Here with S9+ signal at 0106 UTC tune-in with instrumental music and then Dick Weed with ID, mention of transmitter problems, and T-shirt plug "Can't get enough people to buy our !@#$%^ T-shirts!". Into hard rocking punk sounding tune at 0111 UTC
Signal well above the noise with ID at 0014, then right into 80's sounding garage rock song. Another Unid 80's tune at 0117 {Mr. Weed likes to play obscure tunes that are pleasing to the ear, but unrecognized by this 59 year old brain}
Signal strenth down now and the noise making copy difficult. T-shirt plug by Mr. Weed at 0123+. {Signal on 6872.6 was either gone or buried under the noise about 0102, so I switched to 6925 thanks to posting by Beerus Maximus.}
Signal picking up again here at 0134...S6 but mostly above the Rice Crispies propagation. Nothing at 0135 or so.....
I'm getting poor to fair audio again now at 0153 with Heavy Metal sounding tune.

Big signal on 6925 USB. Great audio.

They were up down here. 20 over at times, S-3/4 at others. Noise levels were quite high for late January.
Heard them play one of my favorite Jam songs, "That's Entertainment" and a Cure industrial number from the very early 80's.
I hadn't heard either of those tunes in thirty years.
Nice show.
