Post by: MDK2 on September 18, 2016, 0052 UTC: 0051 weak music, beat more apparent than melody. Hope it gains power soon. Thanks for the show!
0104 OM with ID
0106 OM again. Signal very weak here, it's usually much stronger than this

Post by: Skipmuck on September 18, 2016, 0055 UTC: Just above threshold at 0053 UTC...having trouble fine tuning the signal....lots of bass response for USB!
0103 UTC "Sleepwalking"-The Chain Gang of 1974
0104 UTC something something shortwave XFM testing USB
0106 UTC "This is XFM shortwave"
0107 UTC ID repeated
0111 UTC "XFM The Power of X"
0114 UTC A longer ID this time...trying to fine tune but not on long enough to get the exact frequency
0117 UTC Got it that time! Closer to 6974.9 I think

Post by: HulkSmash on September 18, 2016, 0105 UTC: 0104 UTC - Can't hear much, but thought I heard an ID - Couldn't quite make it out, but it jumped out of the static.

Post by: Rafman on September 18, 2016, 0119 UTC: Fairly loud here s6-8

Post by: Markokpik on September 18, 2016, 0259 UTC: X-FM, 6975 USB, 0054 - 0103, 9/18/16. Bass heavy music, few unintelligible words, dead air for about 30 seconds, back with similar music, ID with somewhat distorted voice, 0203 dead air except for some weak music that came out of the static for a few seconds several minutes later.

Poor here.

Post by: atrainradio on September 18, 2016, 0350 UTC: Had a copy of it at around 0119 with the Sat. 750- noise but audible signal into the QTH

It's a shame they weren't in AM- isn't this the station known for the C-QUAM broadcasts?
