Sig here is all over the place with dance music. Really long, slow fades, but it's had some moments where it was up around SIO:354. Also playing SSTV pics, but I can't synch any of them.

Thanks for the show!

Joe: Awesome catch & great detective work. I've never heard of a true Part 15 station being heard so far away (whether via a harmonic or the fundamental). It's what, about 150 miles away from you?

Yeah, there are enough peaks that I can definitely hear that a station is there, but not enough continuous audio to identify anything. The noise is really rough tonight! Thanks for the tip (CS) and the broadcast (Fox)!

I have no idea if it's audible at my house, but I turned on the recorder before I left for work this morning...

Big sig here, up over S9, but a lot of T-storm noise. Recording...and listening while finally doing a little shack cleaning.

Thanks for the show!

Excellent here. Listening on the SX-96 while installing curtains. Seems like more mainstream '60s/'70s pop/funk/soul/etc. than the typical RRS rock fare

Thanks for the show!

Yes. They did a great job for only herring guts, but they type slowly

BIG signal here. Agree with Chris that the audio seems a little low for the carrier, but the sig so strong here that it still sounds good

Thanks for the show!

'60s pop and rock. Pretty good signal, but much weaker than normal (MAC often has powerhouse sigs here) with deep fades. I think it's conditions

Thanks for the show!

Fair here with rock & DJ Redhat. Not nearly as good as their SSB signal this time.

Thanks for the show!

Duran Duran "Please, Please Tell Me Now" ID & now another '80s dance song. Really nice signal, but a lot of T-storm QRM.
Thanks for the show!

Fair/Good signal here, but heavy T-storm QRM made copy tough. Talent show segments, Off after some sort of numbers stations parody.

Thanks for the show!

Just tuned in to "Riders on the Storm." Not bad signal when I have the recording computer unplugged. Said that he was going to check e-mail one last time. Thanks for the show!

The signal was weak here and sometimes faint, but it had a number of moments in which it was just on the good side of the edge of intelligibility. The music all seemed to be '80s/early '90s hair metal, but there's a chance that something might have been by The Offspring. With all of the "whoa-ohs," I kept imagining that nearly every song was either Bon Jovi or The Offspring, but I couldn't positively ID anything.

0129 possible mention of FRN. "Hello, radio" "...very difficult for...scouring the Internet, looking for reports and such"
0149 clear ID "...The Magic Shortwave Radio Hour..."
0157 "We got a couple of...6-9-2-5 upper side band, you got that right"
0201 Singing to L Cee
0211 "...radio on 6-9-2-5..." mentioned logging that said the signal was more intelligible when he shouted, so he screamed. Think I heard song to RAFman, to the tune of "Batman"
0214 "...Magic Shortwave Radio" then into a song
0217 "Magic Shortwave Radio, that's Magic Shortwave Radio" Heard the rundown of those who logged the station online, but could only make out "Scott McArdle" more IDs

Thanks much for the show! Sounded like a lot of fun, but I wish I could've copied more.

Please QSL

Here, too. I had the R8 on 6925U and the recorder running while I was out playing basketball. Just checked the file and I have at least an hour recorded. I plan to listen to it on headphones tomorrow. If the op has an e-mail address, I'll send an audio file & a report. Thanks for the show!
