0040 rolling it out
S9+5 initially
Heading out for a while, but we will leave the recorder on you, redhat!
Thanks for the show!
Got a nice recording of the entire show, and listening to it today. The signal strength held up quite well tonight, and here is the strength vs. time for the entire show.

The somewhat weaker reception prior to 19000 seconds would be WHYP.

I hear XFM here. The fades aren't so bad. Lots of signal. Difficult to tune with my meager usb.
Using my new antenna. A random wire. Its the remains of my horizontal loop that got taken out by a palm frond in last night's wind and rain storm. Then the branch of the tree that was supporting it got cracked so I had to cut the branch down.

X-FM, 6975, 0108, 12.13.14. Nice mix of music, talk and ID's.
Good (S8) signal with pleasant audio.
Thanks for the show.

S9 and pretty good audio. Some selective fading, but good copy.

0200 - "What Do I Have to Do" by Stabbing Westward [great band!]
0222 - still S9 with "Monkey Gone to Heaven" [another nice selection!]
Thanks for playing my request from the last show - sounded good. Turns out it was by a band called Living Syndication.

0314 - even stronger now - S9+10 with the B52's
0338 - down to S8 at times, but still good copy "Trap Doors" by Broken Bells

Been listening since 0126 UTC while eating dinner at the listening post! Pretty good signal here into Western MA, S8 peaks and great audio but some fades into the noise. I though it was going to be lousy propagation tonight with the noise level, but I guess I'm mistaken ;)
