S8 to S9 @ 0124 with the National Anthem.
Signal jumped up to S9+ @ 0132 and audio widened, sounded very good.
Shoutouts and mentioning new songs upcoming on the show @ 0132.
Dropped the frequency down to 6965 mid-song @ 0231 to avoid some ute QRM - still S9+ here.

X-FM, 6975, 0114, 11/14/15.  Count down to broadcast with electronic voice every minute with music in between, various entertaining clips about radio, first song, "Ladies and gentlemen please rise for the national anthem," Star Spangled Banner, Red Hat with talk about patritism and the attacks in France to talk about the new music he has to play.  Shout outs here, to program of music, including requests.

Dropped to 6965 at 0230 to avoid some interference and started with a request from Liquid Radio.

S9+5 pulling back to S8.  Great sounding singnal

Interesting, Red Hat gave a phone number, with 408 area code, but I missed the rest.  Is he open to call-ins?  408 would make it northern California.

Started off listening on portable but ~0145z, sig took a major dive! Now roller coasting!!!

Had to go to fixed gear & s6-7 on EWE... Having to use ECSS on Lower Side since shift brought up a MAJOR UTE on Upper Side of freq.! However, you never fade totally out, even the deep dive @0215z

The MUF is FUBAR but good to hear you again RedHat, thanks for everything!!!

02:16  "Molecules" Atlas Genius
02:20 "Dakota" Stereophonics
Signals up and down this evening in SE VA. S6 to S9+10 with long fades, but the excellent audio makes it good listening.
Thanks for the show Redhat, always a joy!

Tuned in at 0215utc, fair sig with good audio, light pop/rock music, Drake R8 and dipole. (edit) at 0231utc suddenly switched to 6965am, at 0330 began to fade out and now there is barely a carrier detectable in ssb mode.
