DJ Dick Weed thinks something is played out, complaining about no posts on HFU...oh wait....now there's a post.  Wondering if they were being boycotted (and if so, who did they piss off??).  

Monster Mash is way too played out.....but you should play it anyway :D

2258 UTC - talking about The Walking Dead (DJ Dick Weed is not very big on it)

Powerful and punchy audio tonight.  S9 +10 to S9 +20, very little noise on the base radio.  Able to hear you guys on the portable!  Armchair copy tonight, probably the best I've heard Radio Free Whatever.  

2302 UTC - "Radio Free Whatever" ID into "I Want Candy" - maybe a dance mix or something (seems more spaced out, maybe a bit of reverb in there too?)

2307 UTC - Some peskie QRM from 6965 LSB
2308 UTC - "Welcome to the Radio Free Whatever Halloween Spectacular" - they'll play Monster Mash only if I call in and beg for it - I really hope that phone is a burner and not actually a landline ;)

2324 UTC - Signal dropped a bit, down to S7 or so, considerably more noise.  Something about Radio Free Whatever QSL art or t-shirts (maybe?)

2328 UTC - Signal dropping even more, being overwhelmed by (local) QRN at points :(

Excellent signal here. Thanks comrade!
Big crash in the signal around 2325, almost gone now.

Checking the SDR recording, they came on at 2240, talked for a few minutes, didn't see any loggings, and went QRT. Then came back on at 2252 and did the show.
