0047 RFW.. D Weed, and a very unidentifiable ( by me) tune. Sounds almost oriental. Weak S 4
0048 Off
0049 Voice.. "sounding good", off again
( RE: Mentholyptus.. I had a few emails from her.. she was having internet/wifi connection issues. Just sent her another one regarding your note on her absence)
0052 Back on.. sounds like a few technical issues.
0104  Signal improved some. S7 now.
0117 S9 now.. much better.. "Mentholyptus tribute show" !! Very nice of RFW to do this.

0041 RFW RPM id
0050 off , carrier staying with us.
