Post by: Skipmuck on October 25, 2015, 2314 UTC

La Marseilles IS repeated several times
2314 UTC OM with ID..."You're listening to Radio Casablanca...send your reception reports to radiocasablanca1@gmail.com", into a Halloween themed tune
(I'm going to kick back and enjoy the show...enough details! ;))
I lied...Solid S8 signal with minor fades and excellent audio! Thanks RB!
0010 UTC Signal has faded into the noise now.... :(
0025 UTC Faded back up nicely to S6 here...now with La Marseilles, then some hideous laughter, OM, then OFF at 0028 UTC

Thanks for a superb Halloween special Richard Blaine! Signal dropped out for a bit, but it came back near the end. Thought I was sitting on the old sofa listening to the old standup radio for awhile :)
