Between approx 0100-0130 UTC, several Jimi Hendrix songs (Hey Joe, Watchtower, Stone Free) followed by a Joe Satriani instrumental (Summer Song, I think, been awhile since I listened to Satriani), a song I couldn't identify. Station ID around 0128z, female and male computer voices, with the male voice clearer, with "clevernameradio" email address. Another Hendrix song.
SINPO = 24322
Via Sony 2010 portable on the whip. Signal just barely strong enough to copy familiar songs and part of station ID (male voice). Lots of fading. Some chuffing atmospheric noise. Not too much local RFI interference. Audio seemed good, hard to tell without stronger copy. Probably would have been a 3 overall with a better antenna.
-
01:56 Firehouse "Windmilling"'
01:57 Five Finger Death Punch "Jekyll and Hyde"
Just above the noise in Pittsburgh
-
0207 trace audio at noise floor (which is rather high here). Hopefully will improve as it gets darker here.
-
Booming into Bama at 02:10 with the Beatles. Thanks for the show!

I was doing some bandscanning in that region just after 23:00 utc before I gave up due to high static levels. (big cold/storm front moving out of the area). I could tell there was a carrier on 6880 so I listened a bit. The Beatles "Magical Mystery Tour" popped up out of the noise about 23:20, about an s-6, steady, and clear as a bell. A couple of minutes later it was gone and never made it back up above the noise. When I checked the 40 meter hams in the same period it was obvious by both reception and on-air comments the band was going long.
Very clean sounding signal when I heard it but the audio could use a little fattening up and touch wider bandwidth, IMO. However, that's minor stuff. Nice to finally hear this one!
