A very nice signal fighting a lot of noise here in Chicago.

2224z - ID
2225z - Mountain - Whole Lotta Shakin'.
2240z - more country rock - signal's still doing well.

Signal took a dive as of 2315z. Great show from what I heard JPS. Thanks.

XFM Shortwave, 6925.0am, 12-14-11, SINPO 15441
Fortunately, a pretty low noise floor is letting me hear a XFM broadcast.
ID at "just before 0500" came through pretty clear. Can make out some music
and the unmistakable XFM op.

0504z - Kenny Wayne Shepard - Blue on Black
Signal seems to be improving. Audio quality sounds quite nice.
0509z - Sheryl Crow - My Favorite Mistake (She'd be worth it)
0524z - ReFlex - Politics of Dancing.
0535z - Kiss - I Was Made For Lovin' You.
Much larger signal swings now. Peaks are S3 here to down below the noise floor.

Thanks XFM! Great to hear the first AM show.

TCS Relay, 6930.3am, 12-13-11, SINPO 24322
Tuned in about 0136z to catch the end of Tom Petty's "Won't Back Down" at about S2.
Signal faded for a while, heard what sounded like a country song with a female singer about 0148z.
Nice signal upswing at 0156z for The Who "Won't Get Fooled Again".

0205z - "I'm the nurse who likes to fook" Ferris Buehler
0206z - TCS ID.

Given the frequency, I'm guessing this is NRS. Best signal I've ever had in Chicago for NRS if so. Usually just
a het with the occasional bit of music.

The Crystal Ship via relay, 6925u, 10-29-11, SINPO 13341
A very difficult signal to pull out here considering the QRM and QRN in Chicago tonight.
Sounds like a Halloween oriented show. Bit's of music from the Doors Strange Days,
talk about psychotherapy, then a clear Julianna ID at 0232z, then into another song
about psychotherapy.

Hearing Captain Morgan SW on 6951.5am, 10-1011, SINPO 33432
ID at 0103z - then into Seger's "Night Moves". Nice quality audio on this
rig. Some interference from a nearby het.

Not sure if the other het is another station or something going on with the Capt's. frequency stability.
General drift seems to be down frequency.
