Not able to hear the broadcast on 4185, but can on this relay.  Thank you for the relay service MRI, and for the broadcast Red Hat.  Listening somewhere beneath the stars.....and rain on Mount Hood in Oregon.  Larry is out there under the stars doing another show from Minnesota doing his annual YouTube Halloween Pirate Radio Report.

73 from up the mountain....somewhere under the stars.

I have not been hearing anything from the USAF net frequencies the last three days on 11.175 or 8.992.  Have they shifted to other frequencies, or still there and I am just not hearing them???

Hello all.  Have a question.  What station is it that broadcasts on 13.840 Mhz at 11:00 PM UTC.  The station was coming in fairly decent here into Portland, Oregon.  Could not get the name during the broadcast.
