XLR8 going strong at 0140 UTC. Been listening locally and switching between a half dozen East Coast and Midwest remote SDRs while away from the radio for the past hour or so. Busy band tonight (mostly two-way traffic with pescadores, freebanders, etc). Good frequency choice 6950 kHz USB seems to be one of the few clear frequencies on 43 meters this evening, with a couple bits of minor LSB QRM (from 6953 kHz or 6955 kHz) earlier in the show. XLR8's signal was, and is, much stronger than basically everything else on the 6765-7000 kHz band. Keep up the good work XLR8.
Always enjoy hearing XLR8 and their long marathon broadcasts! Thanks for the Wednesday evening show!
0200 UTC - band finally going long? Hearing two-way USB voice traffic over XLR8 now
0210 UTC - XLR8 came back up considerably, and the two-way chatter has either QSYed, gone QRT/faded or XLR8 is overpowering them enough that they are no longer QRMing him. at 0211 UTC, however, came a very deep fade down into the noise. I can tell there's something there, but can't make it out
0212 UTC - signal came screaming back, with Queens Of The Stone Age - Medication, followed by "XLR8" ID x2 then off the air or very rapid fade
