S8 here in N. Alabama w/ lots of music by Black Label Society including one of my favorites by BLS; "Suicide Messiah".  Frequent CW IDs.  Also throwing in a little Zakk Wylde solo-ing ! (including Eruption, and the SSB).  Cover version of the Bill Withers song "Ain't No Sunshine".  Seemed to close out at 0150, after multiple CW IDs.

Thanx for the show.  I have great respect for Zakk Wylde - even beyond the work he did w/ Ozzy !

S9 and incredible audio and signal stability here in N. Alabama.  Three J. Geils Band songs, all of the same album:  'Insane, Insane Again", "Rage In The Cage" and "Flamethrower".  Frequent announcements by OM; "Get back to work, you slacker".  Thought I heard and ID with a "K" in callsign, but hard to tell for sure.  A few starts and stops in the audio throughout. Off, seemingly for good, at 0325 UTC.

Pounding into North Alabama at S-9 and solid as a rock!  PSE QSL

Tuned in late to the show at around 0128, nice upbeat bluesy song by Bonnie Raitt - "Three Time Loser" (a live version).  This was followed by "If I Lost You" by BB King.  At 0136 UTC, there was a "Wolverine Radio" ID by male announcer, with lots of echo effect. SSTV started soon thereafter (I'm going to get my SSTV software working someday, I promise), and transmission ended at 0138 UTC.

Always an excellent signal with great audo quality for SSB.  I bet you reach Europe again with this one!

Best of DX and 73.  PSE QSL to:  dx-tips [at] att [dot] net
