I have them here in Iowa with the Smashing Pumpkins Sheryl Crow's If it Makes You Happy, and Dear God by XTC, but it's pretty rough going tonight. The pescadores are loud no matter what direction I point the antenna. SIO 222

Not the best copy here with storms rolling in, but audible. Hearing Major Tom at the moment. Brutal static crashes, pescadore interference, and fading. Triple threat! SIO 322

Have them here at an S8. Originally picked them up in the mobile. Heard Joltin Joe DiMaggio and what I think was the "Giants win the pennant" call, followed by a song about Stan Musial (I think). SIO 433

Sounded like a He Man Radio ID at 0147 right after Guns n Roses You're Crazy.

I have them here in Iowa with Beatles music, including All You Need is Love, I Wanna Hold Your Hand, and Across the Universe. Signal is subject to some deep fades, but peaking at 10 over 9 on the Perseus. Station ID "KBOX. Your 15 minutes of internet fame have arrived."

SIO 423

Not a great copy here in Iowa, but it seems to be getting better. Audio seems low for a signal peaking at S9+

Ended abruptly with some sort of weird digital burst at 0305.

Listening in from Iowa tonight. Decent signal, but with plenty of static crashes.  SIO 333

I have a nice copy on them this evening. Heard Waiting for the Sun and now L.A. Woman. S9+10 on the overly generous S-Meter of the Palstar. Band is relatively quiet here as well, which is always nice. SIO 444.

Thanks, TCS!

False alarm folks. Sounds like its fishermen traffic after all.

Carry on.

I have something on 6924.9 LSB, but its right at my noise level. It could be fishermen, but it doesn't sound like them. This is more one long running monologue of some kind. Does anyone else have a better copy?

I caught the tail end of the show here in Iowa. Took me a while to figure out they were on the lower side rather than the upper. Derp!

Heard BOC's Godzilla and the Rolling Stone's Satisfaction, followed by some operator chat. Decent signal with lots of atmospheric noise. SIO 433.

Thanks for the show!

I've got a very weak copy on someone on 6925 AM. It sounds like blues music, but its so weak I can't be positive. Does anyone else hear this?

I've got you here in Central Iowa, but it's a pretty rough go tonight. Good thing the band is quiet here. SIO 242

Thanks RTN!

Another big signal from Wolverine Radio here in Central Iowa. According to the meter on the Palstar, he's matching the strength of Mighty KBC on signal peaks. All songs with 'song' in the title. SIO 555

Thanks Wolverine!

I have them here in Iowa as well, with the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. S9 on the meter, but with occasional QSB and some Morse code interference. SIO 333
