North American Shortwave Pirate / Re: KIPM relay by Undercover Radio 6935 USB 0100 UTC 10 APR 2023
« on: April 10, 2023, 0110 UTC »
Another evening of KIPM courtesy of R. Undercover - "Messages from the Telephone Box at the End of the World"
Signal same as yesterday, S9+20 slight QSB, 7 kHz wide audio
Broadcast ends after about 2 hours 15 minutes of KIPM relay
Two episodes -
"Messages from the Telephone Box at the End of the World"
"Terra Incognita" Partially narrated by voices other than Maxwell
Solid S9+20 for entire broadcast. Excellent audio, only drawback is when there were quiet passages, the atmospheric background noise would come through with no carrier to quiet the frequency.
If Alan Maxwell and David Lynch got together to make a "KIPM" movie that would be truly epic!
