SIO 333 to 444 here at 0023z, but I am using the "wrong" antenna (48mb dipole) on the NRD 545.

Low noise levels tonight, which helps.

listening to a clip from "back to the future" with 80's/90's music.
sounding good, thanks for the evening entertainment :)
edit - receiving this much better on this Kiwi SDR now at 0202z http://kiwisdr.k1ra.us:8073/
tip of the hat to AM pirate broadcasters - its much harder to get the same results on AM than SSB.

Back To The Future audio clips, The Crystal Ship ID, Kim Wilde - Kids In America, followed by "Walk Like an Egyptian"

3425 kHz AM.  Lots of static crashes and some minor fades.  When the static crashes and fades happen at the same time, the signal is basically unreadable.  Otherwise, good signal (S5, sometimes peaking to S6) and nice AM audio.  Always glad to see pirate stations operating on 90 meters :D  

Thanks for the show, The Crystal Ship!  I've always enjoyed your shows.  

0048 UTC - ad for The Crystal Ship t-shirts (your taxes will go down, women will throw themselves at you, your gas mileage will go up, etc)

TCS ID "Take a trip back to 1985; The Crystal Ship: Time Machine" 0050 UTC
Signal Fading at 0055, just getting a slight carrier
0100; Getting Hints of a Big Band sounding piece. Must have just lost my gray line propagation.
0110: Still just barely audible, but nothing Shazamable
Would greatly appreciate a eQSL sent to the email address below.

The Crystal Ship, 3485 AM, 0029, 3.13.17.  Listening to barely audible music in and out of the static floor since 0029, until some music came up about 0047, then back in, then 0048 the end of a song, ID sequence, start of another song and the signal faded back into the static.  Been in and barely out of the static since.

3425, 0059z: Bananarama "Cruel Summer", Quarterflash "Harden My Heart", just barely audible via New England web tuner, best in USB atm.
0104z: Nena "99 Red Balloons", a little better via VA SDR, also audible in AM.

No luck at home via portable. Arcing power line wiping out audio, although there's a decent carrier and just barely audible music through the noise.
