Title: WEAK 6940U
Post by: textim on October 01, 2010, 0043 UTC
Tuned in at 0023z to a reggae song.

0025  WEAK ID
0027  Odd tune sounds like poetry set to a sax player on crack...
0031  Punk music
0035  WEAK ID "15 milliwatts", more punk music
0038  Another WEAK ID
0045  Tom Sawyer, but not Rush

SIO 444, big signal, slight fades.

0128  Big fade, can just barely tell you're still there.  >:(



Thanks WEAK!

0225z Can still hear a pgm in there; not sure if it's WEAK or not though ...

0234z Signal back up to S6 ATTM (was considerably weaker)

0235z Strange human-voice "da da da da-da testing testing ..." repeated four or five times ...

0236z S8 signal!

0239z ID: "WEAK Radio" S4 signal now, little to no QRN - good sound WEAK.

0320z Repeated ID: "WVWR" ... part of pgm material since the WEAK ID is still appearing ...

0334z ID: "WEAK Radio" ... could have been an echo in there as well ...

0346z ID: "WEAK Radio" - announcement was cutoff at the end ...

0359z "Spirit in the Sky" ... used to love to hear this on an old tube-type Zenith Transoceanic ... the low-voltage tubes ...

0419z "Clowns to the left of me ... Jokers to the right - Here I am, back in the middle with you" ... love it!
