I'm hearing XFM from the woods west of Show Low, AZ with a YB-400PE portable using the whip, under a metal roof. Amazing!
Thanks XFM

03/25/12 6.950 AM
Very nice signal into very middle of America. S9 +10Db. Covering all static in AM mode. Practically commercial broadcast quality signal as long as keep the filters under 3200K.
02:24z ID The power of ? This is XFM
02:25z Back to music - I don't know the artist ."..brand new day, banging of the drum.. Ian Brown
02:27z Shout out to Red Mercury Labs, rundown on tracks
02:28z gave out email address.. mention of good condx
Catherwood
PS - Stepped outsiode with my tiny little Degen DE 321 and picked up Filter - "Where do we go from here", into announcer with playlist rundown. This is $20 radio with an 18" whip!
PS. Hmm, I transcribed the email address wrong. It bounced.
PPS. Main receving station here is a Ten Tec Jupiter and a 31' ground mounted vertical with 32 radials. Stepped in to the kitchen and got a decent signal on my old Zenith TransOceanic Royal 7000 with just the whip. Impressive.
Thanks for the show.

Over S9 in the Mojave Desert of California. Also veeerrryyy wide, like over 23 kHz and excellent audio.
T!

Nice steady signal into northern Canada. Doesn't seem as affected by the static crashes as I would have thought an AM signal would be.
-
Fair here with rock & DJ Redhat. Not nearly as good as their SSB signal this time.
Thanks for the show!

Was not expecting to be on the air with DJ Redhat. A little "ate up with the dumbass"" over that one. Sent him a YouTube link of Little Feat "Fatman in the Bathtub".
03:51z I've lost them. Not sure if they went off, or condx shifted radically. Been strong all night. Hope you all enjoyed my Zappa request.
Thank you DJ Redhat, great show tonight.
Catherwood
PS. If anyone is recording, I would appreciate a link later. I cannot hear them anymore. I see on Skeezix's log that DimBulb sent DJ Redhat "Two Trains" by Little Feat. Good selection! Hope the folks enjoyed it. Thank You!
