Sounding good. Nice tunes, much better than that Chicago nonsense on 6935.

Had to answer the door and pay the pizza guy, you're still at a S-9 and sounding good. Nice cranking guitar based rock.

Cut out and now it looks like they're trying to generate an image in the waterfall.

Why, that's better than fighting the noise on the airwaves, DW.

BTW, I didn't know you had a supporting role in Weird Al's "UHF"? The things you learn from avatar pics.

Hit with a hammer, it's the only thing they understand.

Probably a request for spare change and a can of refried beans.

Al Fansome used to wait breathlessly for this one to turn up. I hope he heard it in the Great Beyond.

Al was a good friend, but sometimes I think he spent too much time in that warm California sun? The once a year BBC/Radio St. Helena broadcast was a big one for Al, too. It's long gone.

I remember that "Ask Dr. Radio" bit. Radio Azteca has to be one of the most relayed pirate stations of all time. All of my QSL's came with the frog sticker for my meticulous reports. I never got the prized rejection card, much to my chagrin.

Why are you always stalking me, Goatboy? I'm not knocking your particular orientation, I'm flattered, but I'm not that kind of a guy.

I really don't care to listen to your missives of love and admiration, I'm taken. I'll help you with your audio problems but that's it. Find yourself another man. I hear George Santos is available? Get on with your life, and forget about me.

He's playing it for Goatboy. Goatboy loves John Denver.

Well, at least this show isn't about me. One stalker is enough.

851
That's what I imagine Zeeky looks like.

It's trying to make it above the noise, it sounds vaguely familiar, a little like Jane's Addiction with no cussing.

Interesting catch here. 

I think the following is WBHR (as it's the only ESPN Radio affiliate that I can find on 660). 

The only thing is, I have no idea how a ten thousand watt signal would be making in from Minnesota to Orlando.  That would be about 1,631 miles on the hop from St. Cloud (according to my estimate); New York to Miami is only 1,278 miles. 

I refer to this because there have been reports of WFAN coming in well near the Miami area...but these reports were made in the early 90s. 

There's no way a 10,000 station could get this far out...right?

Was this WBHR?

Before or after dark? About 15 years ago I heard a station from Culiacan in Sinaloa state in Mexico, that's over 2000 miles over dirt, rocks, and mountains from where I lived, in the early hours of the morning using Rat Shack loop. My copy of the WRTH gave the night time power as 5000 KW. So yeah, it can happen, but everything has to be just right and it's usually a one off.

I thought I had that loop pointed at Brownsville, TX. where a station that called itself "The Voice of The Lower Rio Grande Valley" played AOR. I guess I had it aimed a little WNW?

This is Indy Radio, Spanish relay of a European online station.  Not North America item.


Not exactly. The studio's are in the south of Spain, but no one knows where the mighty 15 watt HF transmitter and it's antenna are located. It pounds into a Kiwi SDR in the Canary Islands which are technically part of Spain. The Indy mystery deepens.

As a guy who used a 14 watt transmitter well away from the coast and hit Europe a few times, (Not counting Giovanni Bellabarba in Italy. He heard dx in his head.), what Indy is pulling off interests me. I'm always listening for them.

I didn't hear Porky, but he was gone after I came back from getting something to drink. Good show tonight, Bud.

He hit's those Mountain West SDR's hard, WH.
