Undercover Radio at 1842 UTC.  Dr. Benway says he's got the transmitter cranked up all the way.  SIO about 333 in central NC.  Dr Benway singing along with AC/DC - Highway to Hell.  Seems to have faded into the noise by 1855.  Short audio clip at http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?glogzmycm5y

North American Shortwave Pirate / WTCR Christmas show 3433 USB

« on: December 21, 2008, 1805 UTC »

Caught Dr. Morbius with WTCR's Christmas show from 0112 - 0259 UTC on 3433 USB.  Started with WTCR fanfare and sign on, into a long set of Christmas music.  SIO 444 throughout the entire show, with some slight fading, and some weak QRM from some voice comms a few khz away.  Dr. Morbius had his usual monster signal, and suberb audio.  Audio clip of complete show at http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?z0ym5jgv5dh

Thanks for the great Christmas tunes!

North American Shortwave Pirate / WTCR 3433U

« on: December 14, 2008, 0408 UTC »

This appears to be a rebroadcast of the show broadcast just previously on 6925 which I missed.  Started at 0230 with WTCR fanfare and sign-on, into CCR- Sweet Hitchhiker, Stones - Ain't Too Proud to Beg, and others.  The notable difference was the addition of a song at the end of the broadcast, Steely Dan - Peg.  Signal ranged from SIO 444 to 555, with WTCR's usual great audio.  Audio clip of entire show at http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mjnmvammwdm.  Thanks Dr. Morbius for your usual great signal and audio, and for taking the time to entertain us!
