0139Z 35333 S7 Phish "Chalkdust Torture"
0143Z 25332 S5 OM talking. Unable to make much of anything out. Audio level is lower than on the music.
0143Z 35323 S5 The Stranglers "No More Heroes" A lot of deep fading. Signal has been great to down near the noise level. Also a bunch of other atmospheric noise is up tonight (including occasional distant lightning).
0147Z 25322 S4 Garcia Peoples "One Step Behind"
0155Z 25322 S4 OM talking again. Unable to understand... signal at times was fine, but isn't clear.
0156Z 45323 S5 Unable to ID song, but signal came way up (still with deep fades). Can see its a nice wide signal, +/- 9.6 kHz
0200Z 35343 S5 OM talking again... Something about 40W. Hard to understand.
0201Z 45323 S6 Jerry Garcia Band "After Midnight"
0219Z 35323 S5 Some CW after the song. Saw WRXI and some other characters.
0219Z 35323 S5 Muffled OM again. Gave email address, something like wrxiam@gmail.com
0221Z 35323 S5 Steppenwolf "Born to be Wild"
0225Z 35323 S5 Captain Beefheart "Tropical Hot Dog Night"
0229Z 35323 S5 Muffled OM. Gave email again wrxiam@gmail.com. Was able to get WRXI pretty well, but severe fading still is troublesome.
0230Z 35323 S5 Marie "Milky Way"
0238Z 35323 S5 OM talking and the audio is good. Very clear ID: "WRXI AM. 4070 kHz. About 40 Watts-ish." Thanked us on HFU for sticking around.
0238Z 35323 S5 Grateful Dead "Ramble on Rose"
0245Z 35323 S5 Syd Barrett "Terrapin"
