2134 Super weak here, JBA.
2135 I switched to Commsigma's KiwiSDR, where it is SIO 333. Hi Dickweed!
2138 OK, better at the Elida OH KiwiSDR.
2139 Sounds like Internet 1, Dickweed 0. Sorry Dickweed, was looking forward to the show. I hope your computer behaves next time!
2141 Off.
2144 Back on 5150 USB, a good signal here in MD
2149 Fading badly now.
2212 Back again, SIO 333.
2216 SIO 444 now!

2139 tuning in time to hear DJDW saying he's having trouble and will end the broadcast. Too bad. Good signal at Elida OH kiwi SDR.
2140 QRT
2145 tuned to 5150 per Smolinski's post, signal is much weaker than it was on 6950 at the Elida SDR. Old USSR anthem playing.
2147 now on one of the Smolinski SDR, still weak but a lower noise floor there.
2148 very good signal at the Sigma SDR on the MA/CT border.
2149 DJDW having trouble with Spotify
2150 DJDW signing off to try to sort out his internet issues. Will come back if he gets it working, but will not if he can't.
2152 still on the air, trying to figure out the issue.
2153 silence... DJDW is going to turn off the wifi on his cell phone so he's gone doing that. (As of 2157 he is still gone... will he be coming back?)

2209 HE'S BACK, and the signal at the Sigma SDR is awesome.
2219 DJDW with station and song ID's.
2221 "Come All Ye Faithful" The Psychedelic Furs - nope, def. not a Xmas in July song.
2236 DJDW on the mic into "Sharks" by Love Fame Tragedy
2249 DJDW on the mic
2251 back to the music
0013 still tuned in via Sigma sdr, where it's faded a bit from it's earlier peak signal but still quite listenable, SIO 233 or so.
