In and out of the S9 noise here.  Heard a bit of "Lady in Red" at 0624z, and a clear Radio True North ID at 0626.

Thanks RTN.  Looking forward to winter when this static quiets down.

North American Shortwave Pirate / Current Time Radio 6925 U

« on: August 04, 2012, 0559 UTC »

Heard the Timekeeper giving the current time at 0555z.  Sounded like he was in QSO with another station that I was unable to hear.  Also gave shoutouts to several listeners, including Sealord, jFarley and others.

S9+ signal!

Thanks Timekeeper!

Don't know if it was the same station, but someone played "Time" by Alan Parsons just after the Timekeeper went off.  Nice audio and a very good signal as well!

Tuned in at 0144z.  "Who Are You" and "Pinball Wizard".  Sounded like a looped announcement at 0151 but I couldn't make it out.

Fair signal here through lots of noise.  I can make out some of it listening in USB.
