The outskirts of the 49 meter band is opening up now to the east coast of North America and first up for the evening is Laser Hot Hits being relayed by Radio Magic Int'l at 2145 UTC tune in with signal fading in and out of the noise floor . I received a very nice email from the team at Magic and they said that they would be on 6205 this evening because some other free radio stations would be using 6200 today. They plan on continuing relays of Laser Hot Hits in addition to their own programming, as well as possible relays of other European operators in the near future. Details are forthcoming and a LOT OF WORK is going into making all this happen. A website is in the works, the technicals are being worked on, with a possible station name change. Reception reports are going to be most welcome, but it will be a couple of weeks before everything is in place, so listeners are asked to be patient for a little bit longer :) The Magic team is definitely NOT trying to be elusive...it takes a lot of hard work to get this thing going and the station plans on being very interactive with the listeners. The Magic team has made it quite clear that the listeners are very much appreciated and that they need a bit of time so as not to get overwhelmed...reception reports will be verified with eQSL's in the next few weeks, so hang onto your hat and give the Magic team a chance to finish up the details. A formal announcement from the Magic team will be forthcoming shortly! :)
2200 UTC Signal is up to S3 now and if conditions are like last night, reception should be really great tonight!
One last check before I hit the sack and Laser "live" is S8 here at 0220 UTC :)

About an S5/S6 at 2205z.
-
Have Radio Magic Int'l at 2205z peaking at S3. Sounds like a disco song.

Hearing them on portable in Virginia!
2315z
-
Have weak talk in an elevated noise floor, just barely above the static, hard to make out what is being said.

I'm not taking notes like last night, but I could't help myself when I heard LHH op give Steve Olson a shoutout at 2350 UTC! This is a rebroadcast of LHH's live program last night, so you were acknowledged then live. The LHH DJ read some of your comments Oly1959! ;D
Another great night for propagation from Europe...nice S7 signal with a little bit of fading
-
Hearing something here at 00:10UTC some fading there is music here with English male speaker fair signal especially spoke about Denmark. I yet to catch a ID in Western South Carolina. s7 signal level
-
The mention of Denmark that you heard slowtrain, was the LHH DJ acknowledging an email from a listener in Denmark! Also mentioned was that Laser Hot Hits was going to be carried live on Magic Int'l on Sundays. Not sure what time though, but I'm looking forward to this! :)

Very good signal here tonight with OM DJ reading listener messages, answering questions about the transmitter and mentioned the 6205 frequency. Pop music right now at 0052z.

Outstanding S8 signal @ 0205z.
