Signal was legible ten minutes ago. A lot of QRN here tonight and I've only got a cheap wire loop up. SIO 222. Hope to hear more, hearing a harmonica...

I'm hearing trippy synth music with lots of echo and efx.... S2, barely copy. Heard what might have been a skit or something... back to music now at 0443z. QSB all over but still, thank you for the show!

Great reception of a beautiful signal here in AZ. Thanks so much for the show!
(edit: to Canswl above, I was thinking the exact same thing! Maxwell was unique. Nobody tells trippy stories like he did. I still have a KIPM QSL from 2002 on my wall and it's a thrill to hear these shows still going out into the ether.)

7200 kHz right now is full of people talking over each other about how drunk they are, this activity has been around since the dawn of the hobby. Pigmeat got it right, & it helps to have a sense of humor to appreciate (?) how "bad" things can get late at night on LSB. The 3840 guys a few years ago were (are?) legends to each other. 7200 seems to be the "new reliable".

For some reason some of the most obnoxious people in the hobby (outside drunk zones of 80m) seem to post on QRZ. The vast majority of people I've met on air have been helpful and friendly.
I just had a casual QSO on 10m with a guy across the country, and the general courtesy level of the old timers in this field is quite a throwback to very different times.
The hobby seems pretty healthy on air, qrz forums not so much. [QST magazine is another weird stagnant pool with a few bright spots IMO]

Shortwave Broadcast / Radio Omdurman Sudan 7200/7205 kHz
« on: July 26, 2022, 0445 UTC »
Presumed R. Omdurman Sudan on 7200 kHz at 0440z, with presumed Sudanese music playing very legibly beneath some somewhat irritated/amused amateur radio ops.
This seems to be the domestic service, per 2021 WRTH. The music is very interesting, a mix of middle eastern and west African and currently featuring an accordian.

Pigmeat was Fansome's spirit animal.
I am thankful for Pigmeat's return.
Long live Pigmeat.
Long Live Al Fansome.
