Title: WDEF 6964 USB 0009 UTC 22 SEP 2025
Post by: Treehouse SWL on September 22, 2025, 0011 UTC
Very solid S7ish signal heard via the Lodi, New York, SDR with good audio that's staying above the noise and rising static crashes tonight ...

0009 UTC: Robotic-voiced WDEF ID into "Memories Can't Wait" by Talking Heads.
0013 UTC: Episode of "Richard Diamond, Private Detective" started.
0025 UTC: As the "Richard Diamond" episode continues, I checked the Northern Utah SDR and can hear weak audio there, despite still being in daylight. No sign of the signal out here near Seattle, of course.
0033 UTC: SSTV transmission that I didn't decode.
0035 UTC: Back to "Richard Diamond."
0041 UTC: Richard Diamond/Dick Powell's now singing "Dear Hearts and Gentle People" to wrap up the episode.
0044 UTC: Robotic-voiced WDEF ID, then Onion Radio News fake news story.
0045 UTC: "Ruby Tuesday" by The Rolling Stones.
0048 UTC: Start of another "Richard Diamond, Private Detective" episode.

Thanks for another broadcast of music and radio drama!

013- Intro to Richard Diamond, private detective radio drama. Ellen calls, and witty banter ensues. A psychiatrist from Bellevue Hospital next pays him a visit.

Weak signal heard. OM heard. A song was heard, but too weak to ID. Thanks for the show.
