A respectable steady S7 signal in KY, storms north and west, so lots of static, but making it thru pretty good.
Details same as skeezix above.
Red Mercury ID @ 0233z
Thanks for the show!

Hearing RML at s7 at 0242 UTC.  Just a little splatter from Grizzly Bear Shortwave above.  Nice to hear you and report you for once.

He mentioned being busted, broken, no power.  Bummer, been there done that, wallowing around out at sea without propulsion for about 12 hours one time.

Signal is, as normal, very good in here tonight, S8 or a little more.

T!

We're getting very nice & rich audio here despite some static crashes (& despite the momentary equipment glitches and resultant drop-outs) without any appreciable fading!  Solid S = 9 + with the S = 6-7 noise floor! Mostly 1980's music that I am unfamiliar with (no surprise here, I never listened to mainstream music anyhow) and live announcer, yahoo.com email addy, some shoutouts, etc.  Thanks for the program, sorry that the S.S. Red Mercury is buzz-ted, but ya sound great down here near Stockton Calif.!

0310z: Just tuned into 6925 USB, heard Red Mercury Labs ID, Fixx "Red Sky at Night".  Not strong but audible through lower than usual local RFI.

0342Z, just tuning in. Playing Tool - Swamp Song. Very loud tonight at an easy S9.
0346Z, well darn, just took a fade. RML is currently talking but I can't make out any of it right now.

SINPO 43343. Lots of atmospherics here tonight, along with some interference, though still a decent copy.

Good music. Thanks for the broadcast.

Update: Appreciate the shoutout! :)

Steady S5 signal here in NW Florida.  Minimal fading, heard well with little disturbance from static crashes.  I'm older than most of you, so I don't know the songs played.  I heard the shoutouts and various email addys given.  enjoyed the show!
