S6 here
2308, dialog mixed w other distant peskies
2310, 2315, music with a beat. Can't quite ID it though.
Halifax: I'm hearing 1 music source here, and multiple distant faint peskies jabbering away.
It reminds me of when many people are talking at once in a restaurant... just a collective blabbering.
6930 USB is active now, stepping on this

Equipment / Re: What Radio Did you start your listening hobby with?
« on: October 17, 2013, 2325 UTC »
I had picked up a used Regency 10 channel crystal scanner when I was in high school... my next step from the Bendix towards SWL! It worked great, but I couldn't listen to it in bed at night with the lights out... the bulbs for the channels were so bright, and all that flashing when it scanned made my room look like a psychedelic disco and I couldn't sleep!! Lol. You could probably pick one of these up for peanuts now, but it was a great little scanner though. Programmable scanners weren't available yet, but when the Bearcat 210 came out, I sold this one and put the money towards a 210.

I'm hearing faint activity here, just above the noise floor.
Anyone awake, or any SDRs going?
0815, faint speech
0818, faint music
0822, faint speech
0824, sounds bluesy... maybe Blue Ocean Radio?
0833-0928, faint music in & out

New England started going bad for me tonight around 2300, at the end of Pirate Radio Boston's show.
I tried tuning RFW in several times starting @ 0000, but no luck. Propagation to New England at later hours hasn't been in my favor lately. I'm sure that'll change soon, and RFW will be its usual 15-20 over for me again.

Heard this also. Was just above the noise floor but fairly easy copy. Passband tuning helped.
0332-0347, various old 78 tunes, ending with Billy Vaughn's "A Swingin' Safari" from 1962
