Elton John- Rocket Man. Good signal showing S8. Thanks for the broadcast.

Station is in and out at times. Sometimes the signal is looking big.

The theme tonight is Rocket Man by different artists. Signal jumped to S9+10.

S9 peaks @ 0107 with "Rocket Man".  Getting some audio cut-outs.
0111 - Radio Free Mars IDs, then "Radio Mars" Maggotron
0119 - off
Thanks for the show!

SINPO=33222, with signal improving.

109- "Rocket Man" by Elton John, but remixed with repeats, reverb and techno/dance beats.
110- Robotic OM voice talking with effects, but hard to copy right now due to QRN. I thought I heard something like "Radio Ragnar" or "Radio Rad-(something)", but it was more likely "Radio Rocketman," although that's just a guess.
111- Sound effects and then upbeat pop music with synthesizer sound, "Radio Mars" by Maggotron.
117- OM speaking "Rocket Man" lyrics dramatically over background music.
119- Silence, then off.

Via NA5B in the D.C. area, as this one's just barely making it to Utah let alone Seattle ...

0109 UTC: Remix of Elton John's "Rocket Man," which is the signature of Radio Free Mars.
0110 UTC: Robotic-voiced ID over music. OM announcer chatting and giving ID.

ID sounded like Radio Radeon, but bad hearing and all, who knows.

Can hear music but pretty deep in the noise floor.
