6960
0247z: Play Free Bird dude... oh, wait, they are.  Sounds like live or alternate cut, not the usual single.
0250z: "BID Radio.  Burn It Down"
0250z: Foreigner "Head Games"
0255z: Don Henley "Dirty Laundry"
0300z: Def Leppard "Rock of Ages".  Günter Grass Gets Grumpy Goobers.
0304z: Dead Kennedys version of "I Fought the Law"
0306z: BID Radio ID with Linkin Park "Burn it Down" background music
0306z: Blessid Union of Souls "I Wanna Be There"
0311z: Buttnekkid Wimmins "One Week"
0314z: Green Day "Good Riddance - Another Fork Stuck in Your Eye"
0317z: Sudden steeeeep faaaade out... sounds like Johnny Cash version of "Ghost Riders"
0321z: Johnny Cash "Boy Named Sue" - signal still pretty weak but easy to ID this tune.
0324z: When I was a young boy I threw away those John Cougar Meloncramp songs.  Except for "Check it Out", which is still a great song.
0328z: Journey "Wheel in the Sky"
0333z: No Doubt "Don't Speak".  That's right, Gwen, just git in the kitchen and make me a sammich.
0336z: Possible ID or announcer chatter, but signal faded to barely audible again.  Darned poopagation.  Gimme sunspots.
0338z: Poison - Ain't nuthin but a good time.  Jussst barely audible every minute or so.
0343z: Queen.  Scaramouche.  Very frightening.
0346z: BID Radio ID, announcer comments but dang signal faded too much to copy.



This all sounds like my first ex-wife's 8-track playlist.

Thanky kindly, BID, my first catch.  Signal started out great for first half hour, then the magical sky hamsters quit working.

Pretty strong signal here, SINPO=34433, which seemed stronger because noise was low. Until 0317z, when signal suddenly nosedived to 24422.  Picked up again a bit around 0324z, 23432, although local RFI heavier now too.

Doing very good here in Northern Utah at 0350utc and appears now to have switched to SSTV.  Nice to have signals on this late that can be copied west of the rockies.  Looking forward to better conditions this winter!

Generally a very good signal here, SIO 444, on the SDR recording. The last song and SSTV transmission were weaker than everything else, so I am not sure they were transmitted by BID radio.

Scottie 1 SSTV:
