Title: FRS-Holland 9300.1 khz AM 2101 UTC August 30, 2015
Post by: Skipmuck on August 30, 2015, 2104 UTC
Signal came up rather quickly with "Whip It"-Devo at 2101 UTC
2103 UTC OM with talk including jingle
2105 UTC UNID pop song...signal varies widely with deep fades into the noise
Program seems to be 1980ish European pop tunes in between OM chatting in between.
2120 UTC OM with mention of "FRS"
2125 UTC OM mentioned an email from a Massachusetts listener...not sure who. Also a clear ID as "Your alternate on shortwave...FRS-Holland"
2148 UTC Signal has jumped up nicely now...pounding in here at the moment!
2201 UTC "Itchycoo Park"-Small Faces :) I know this one and it isn't the 80's 8)
