Yep.

They've been on the air under a month. They would probably appreciate the heads up about their website. I would think most of their attention so far has been on tweaking the transmitting side of the operation.

BDM, did anyone ever tell you you bear a striking resemblance to the late Redd Foxx? A wise and great man.

BTW, Svetlana goes by the name of "Anna Chapman" these days. If you do a search for her pics, you'll see that large tubes are in her blood.

around in NYC in droves, per a Yahoo science article.

Are the beasts out to shut down our shipping and eat the children in the greater NYC area? How long will it be before they reach Albany, and via the Erie Canal, the Great Lakes?

We should steer the whales where their rapacious appetites for human flesh can do the most good, the Jersey Shore, the Hampton Roads/ Virginia Beach region, and the northern Outer Banks.

The inshore waters of Dade and Broward County, FL. wouldn't be a bad idea either.

Isn't she the valve heiress? 

Yep, and Putin's youngest sister to boot.

Al will be ok in a couple of months. He's always had rejection issues. He wandered around his trailer for years muttering "Belinda, Belinda" over some chunky blonde from L.A.

by the name of Eric Snowden. She proposed marriage to him after knowing him for a week. Some news agencies are saying it was a Kremlin plot to keep Snowden in the country to get info from him, but we both know how she likes to seduce Alpha He-Geeks just to break their hearts.

Sorry to have to break it to you.

Living where he does now, I'd go with "Sauteed the local mushrooms for brunch.", for 500.

I like Radio Rebelde; it has good music, and I can usually tune it in pretty much whenever.

Tell us more, Comrade Fansome.

The one drawback to us being being famouse, Al, is being mobbed by the media at Winterfest. Sean Penn tried to warn us but did we listen? Nooooo.... We were blinded by the riches, women, and fame.

Damn those parasites known as the paparazzi!

Strong signal, but unlistenable due to local QRM from a bodyshop across the river. Some of their equipment puts out wideband hash from just above 6878 to roughly 6900 khz. when operating. It was going strong last night.

I could hear the carrier, but that was it. The good thing was there were no signs of pescadores anywhere on the band here last night.

Maybe I'm sitting in a "No Pescadore" zone as winter approaches? Signals from them have fallen off steadily for the past couple of weeks.

Same as Rafman here, bits of music on peaks but even those were too weak to ID.

LOL!!! Good one, ulx.


I wonder how the Midget of Moscow is dealing with the bottom falling out of the oil market and the ruble dropping like a rock? The oligarchs that keep him in power must be starting to think, "We can always replace him with that fat North Korean kid."

Cool! Radio Espana was always one of my favorite broadcasters.

Now if the Swiss would get their finals out of their rectums and return to the air, I'd be a happy man.

Yet Keith Richards lives on. There's something very wrong about that.
