Signed on with SSTV then into tonight's story "The Man In The Moon"
Very good here, SIO 444.
This is a fun station, thanks for the old sci fi shows. Old Time Radio has some competition! :-)

Not as strong as yesterdays transmission.  Only about S5 tonight.

Clear signal maybe hitting S8 with low noise. Pretty good audio. Thanks for the show!

Just gave station ID.

Then into "Man in the Moon".  So far, signal is about the same as last night.

0028 Sounds like the prof is on the far side of the moon?
0030 moon colony planning an invasion of the Earth
0038 show wrap, and SSTV at 2339

Just tuned in as X Minus 1 ended. Signal weak to fair. In south/central NY.

Here is a link to a HQ version of tonights program "the man in the moon": https://archive.org/download/OTRR_X_Minus_One_Singles/XMinusOne55-05-29006TheManInTheMoon.mp3

this show is very appropriate as it deals with radio transmissions from the moon!

I do not have a signal report as I live next to a 5KW am station that blocks out most listening.

SDR Recording Catch

0010 - Faintly hearing/seeing  SSTV just above the terrible QRM/N level.
          No decode on this one.  :(

          Not hearing the accompanying program.  :(

0011:30 - Saw/heard  in the waterfall what I think was someone tuning
                away from frequency ?
