8/21/10
6925 USB
2319z: Springsteen "Glory Days", CCR "Green River"
2325z: Sounded like Outhouse op talking over CCR song, not sure tho'. Yup, copied "...seems like it works. Outhouse Radio." Into Springsteen "Born in the USA"
2330z: Jim Croce "Time in a Bottle"
Audio seems good, neutral balance and easy to copy.  Barely nudging the needle on the indoor fugloop at the moment but easy to copy familiar songs.
2335z: "Green Onions" and Outhouse Radio ID, noodling the needle around S3-S4 over S1 noise on the indoor loop, which would probably equal S9 on a decent outdoor antenna.
2340z: Steve Earle "Copperhead Road"
0005z: DXer achieves Ferris Bueller status: "Al Fansome is my hero" over Hendrix Star Spangled Banner.  S3-S5 over S1-S2 local noise.
