21 May 2012
Hearing Dr. Benway in informal talk, possibly a test?
Mixed in with the noise from t'storms which just passed through.
0145 Playing a piece about personal freedoms.
0159 If I heard him correctly, he ment that "he was just trying to get a show together"; using a laptop mike? (Really horrendous QRN tonight)
0206 Unid instr'l music; signal has picked up about 10dB here!
0220 Diving in the Solomon Islands
0240 ID, wrap up
0243 off
0243:30 Back on with "Funniest shit; I had the power turned all the way down!" -- Much better here now!
Thanks Dr. Benway!

Undercover Radio, 5-21-12, 0135-0247+, 6.925U, sigs buried in the static...heard mention of pirate radio when program first started, sounded like a conversation, clear ID caught at 0220. sigs a little better now but still buried in the static. says running normal power now at 0242...little better sig here now.

S9 good signal, clear modulation. Little fading, tstorms causing QRN.
SINPO 44444
Nice for 20 watts.
Thumbs up

I'm not sure if that's Dr. Benway and Undercover Radio playing Laurie Anderson or not. I heard him say he was signing off about 20 minutes ago and came back to the radio to hear this around 0355
Yup, that's him. Still going strong at 0420. Thanks for the show, Doctor!
