Between satellites staying up longer on the one hand and 'space junk' also seeing more time in orbit -
I see a "Less filling - tastes great!" debate in the offing ...
As far away as UT ... impressive ...

North American Shortwave Pirate / Re: WEAK 6940U
« on: August 26, 2010, 1359 UTC »0400z: Just tuned in again, seems to be AM or suppressed carrier with audio on USB only? Either that or another inaudible station on 6940 in AM on top of WEAK. Hard to tell here.... recall the event a few weeks back, vis-a-vis WWCR and some sort of spurious appearing on 6940?

General Radio Discussion / Re: Man, shot in head, notices five years later
« on: August 26, 2010, 0203 UTC »And a couple of comments from this stary ---Ok, I hate to nitpick here, but there is no way a .22 bullet would maintain enough velocity from falling to lodge in his head. Just like the myth of dropping a penny off the empire state building, air resistance will keep it's terminal velocity low enough that it won't have piercing power.---- and ---- Beautiful. Someone is actually quoting reality TV as a definitive source and calling OTHER people morons. The dumbing down of America is right on schedule.
Yeah, if you shot it STRAIGHT up it probably wouldn't injure you too badly. But how about if I pop a round off from a half mile away at, I don't know, how about a 45 degree angle? Think that might sting a little if it hit you in the side of your noggin? Let's see the Mythbusters try that one.

Muzika - synthesizer-based 'buzz' tunes ATTM
0013z Rock on - AC/DC takes the stage ...
0018z Op live on mic ... average modulation/audio level too low to make much out given QRN (need some compression on local mic) ...
frn logs this as Radio Sycko ...
0026z Signal strength at S2 to S3 with mild to moderate QRN
0039z And off-air it would appear. Interesting pgm - thanks!
