Title: WTWW 5085 kHz AM Retro Top 40 Daytime 60 Meters 1210 UTC 19 May 2019

Retro Top 40 on shortwave proudly coming to you on shortwave, WTWW

ZZ Top's "La Grange" Coming in nice and loud on the Tecsun PL-880 this morning 1210 UTC (0810 local/0710 central time) - listening via the Westminster, MD KiwiSDR (SIO 555 on both receivers).  Can hear them with the stock telescopic whip no problem.  60 meters daytime woo

Noted some fading on 5085 kHz around 1220 UTC, checked 19 meter frequency 15810 kHz with SDR receiver while listening on the Tecsun and 15810 is beginning to come in via Westminster, MD (the Smolinski SDR) but 5085 sounds better at 1225 UTC.  Sounds like the DJs are at the Dayton Hamvention?
