Okay signal from the icy shores from East Antarctica.  A little less distorted if tune close to 6959.983 or so. If only there was something called a carrier to resolve this sort of thing? ;)

After Radio Station WWWW signed off on 6925  USB, I switched over to the super powerful Band-Aid Radio on 6960 USB.  Perfect modulation tonight.  Thanks for working on the transmitter.  Nice and clean audio tonight!  Great music, too!   
03:04   Heh Jude, The Beatles   
03:11 nice monologue by DJ on Band Aid Radio
03:12  Take it Easy, by The Eagles
....   All very nice music
03:32  DJ mentions running out of battery juice (a 800 W battery), with 700W output.
Into his signature sign-off song, Foil by Weird Al Jankovic.    Thanks for a most enjoyable set tonight!  73,  Walt
Wait, is there more?  Someone much weaker is playing Louie, Louie at 03:36!
