Just booming into Masset, BC at 23:45 UTC playing Azure by Paul Kalkbrenner
23:46: "We are 14 minutes to air (twice). This is the backhaul feed"
23:51: 2 Dog Radio ID with Red Hat relay coming up at 00:00. Totally like a local!
23:58: "Two minutes to air", and "last 120 seconds will be silent (or something like that)".
23:59: 2 Dog Radio occupying the channel until Red Hat starts "fairly directly".
00:00:20 Red Hat begins
....very enjoyable programming with appropriate Halloween content and many shout-outs.

2346 - Can hear music sounds fade in from time to time here
-
2346 SIO 333 here in Denver. Thank for the show! (now, THIS might be X-FM, based on both the music which I think is what usually he plays as an interval, plus the signal strength here where the sun is just setting.)
2350 OM announcing 10 minutes to air
-
2346: Voice over the music said "14 minutes to air" Shazam says the music is Azure by Paul Kalkbrenner.

0002 UTC: Montage of soundbites about radio, free speech, and more over music.
0004 UTC: "Under the Stars" by Morning Parade.
0008 UTC: Red Hat: "Oh my goodness." He then gave the X-FM ID, said his new transmitter's still not done, and thanked his relay stations (Two Dog Radio, Radio Illuminati, and Mix Radio International) and frequencies (including 6850 USB 6955 and USB).
0010 UTC: He then previewed some of the music coming up, gave the phone number, and the email (xfmshortwave@proton.me). He also gave HFU shout-outs.
0015 UTC: Canned X-FM Halloween ID, then "Who Laughs Last" by Lord Huron feat. Kristen Stewart, followed by "moody" by Royel Otis.

0126 UTC: "London Calling" by The Clash. Even in USB, that song's great opening bass riff comes through nicely! Thanks for playing my request. The signal's still holding up very nicely directly to my radio.
VERY good to hear your voice again, Redhat! I'm going to sit back and listen for a while now.

Happy Halloween from somewhere under the stars......and rain on Mount Hood. Thank you to Two Dogs for the relay tonight. The signal was full strength on the meter on the radio I was using at work, and on my HF radio in my car. Red Hat, always great to hear you and your station. 73 all!
