S6, here in N. Alabama, with a lot of QRN.

SSTV at 2336, followed by UNID song/artist "On The Radio"  Numerous IDs at 2240, mentioning what sounded like "HCR". Into UNID songs and announcements, soon after.  Hard to ID the station, due to exaggerated sound effects during the IDs. "Psycho" Radio ??  More UNID music, and more SSTV at 2348.  UNID Techno/club music followed.  Announcement at 2355, mentioning "This is not a test". A couple of IDs by OM, spoken over techno/dance music in a digitized voice, at 0013, which sounded line "Q R M".  Hard to ID, due to the pounding music and the digitization.  More SSTV at 0016.

Slightly above S7, here in N. Alabama.

"The Music Sounds Best on XFM" is not just a slogan, it's the truth.  You really do have the best audio quality, out there.  I also appreciate how you run your station as a "true station", rather than a gimmick.  That's something I've always appreciated about the Euros, and I definitely appreciate it, about XFM.

No QSL necessary.  Just wanted to send well-deserved kudos.
