S6 here but with funky modulation?

0052z: X-FM Shortwave ID, modulation sounding a bit off unfortunately :-(
0057z: S7 & sounding a bit better now with PWEI tune - never thought I'd hear PWEI on shortwave - love it!

Getting it here also but like the rest of you, very hard to understand even though it is a S7-8. Caught ID at 0052, XFM. Thanks XFM for the show even though something is not just quite right. :)
At 0106, saying can you hear me now-OH YEA! Sounding really good with signal almost at a S20! WOW! Thanks Redhat! ;D
Thanks for Iron Butterfly, AWESOME TUNE!

X-FM, 6965 AM (sort of), 0050, 11.1.14.  Drums with singing - drums are predominant w/ singing barely audible.  Distorted X-FM ID at 0052.

Signal is S6 and quite adequate.  having problems however.

Solid S8 with great sound at 0107.

00:56 music playing.. Although a good carrier (S-7) the audio is "muffled") with signal peaking and falling at random.
Heard song Ina Gadda Da Vida and Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress Then OP talk...

Hearing music, but difficult copy due to pescs on 6967 LSB.
Audio cleared up quite a bit @ 0105z.  ID's and email @ 0107z
Starting the show over.
Inagaddadavita @ 0114
Ava Adore by Smashing Pumpkins @ 0135z

I can just barely tell there's a signal and can occasional hear a voice. I tuned back to the station a few minutes later and was able to copy Zombie by The Cranberries at S9.

Fair signal into Central IL. Fading in and out. Lots of static.

Thanks for the show!

Some days just aren't your day.

Antenna problems, audio configuration screw ups....and....then the breaker trips.

..So I guess we're done for the night.  We'll give it another shot sometime.

Thanks, X FM, I didn't hear you as well as other times unfortunately. You were better as the sun set. Then got worse after that.
