Interesting. I used to use that same Ramones id from the song "Rock N' Roll Radio" as an id for a station of the same name nearly a decade and a half ago.

Obviously a tribute to my "Pirate Radio Hall of Fame" quality programming. Either that or base case of schtick stealing.

I've been getting nothing but threshold audio at best, but I'm having a good time following the drifting signal as it makes it way through 43 meters :)

SDR Recording Catch
S7 carrier - moderate QSB
No Positive ID

0141 - Carrier noted on frequency - only faint audio
0221 - hearing brief drumming?
0222 - S/Off - QRT

You could really hear the frequency instability...

SDR recording catch. 0141 sign on with a very good signal, but started to fade out around 0149.
