QSLs Received / XFM QSL

For the first C-QUAM broadcast, I received an 8x11 replica of the QSL originally sent out, signed by redhat and the Old Professor, and an XFM Select Hits 2012 CD.  If that weren't enough, I also received this XFM Stereo Shortwave hoodie...



redhat, I am blown away by your generosity.

Thank you, thank you, and thank you again!  Happy Holidays to you and yours.

« on: December 23, 2012, 0057 UTC »

Seemed to come on at 0048 w/ the Dead - "Uncle John's Band" then 0ff at 0054.

On again at 0056 with another Dead (?) tune
0100 "Friend of the Devil", "Dire Wolf"?
0112 "Friend of the Devil"
0115 seems to have gone off

S5 peaks on an S4 floor.  Might be intermittent or fading to inaudibility.

Thanks!

This has been IDed by 3 DXers as Wolverine Radio, and I have changed the subject to reflect that.  Thanks guys!

« on: December 20, 2012, 0314 UTC »

On about 0245 with the Police - "Lonely" and "Walking On the Moon".  A third Police tune started up around 0258, but a rather large local QRN signal moved down from above and parked on 6925.  Not able to listen since, but here's hoping the QRN moves soon...

S5 on an S4 floor without the QRN.

Thanks for the show!

0319: QRN cleared out finally and no trace of music here now.

I noted a very weak AM here between approx 0300-0303UTC.  I could barely discern mx here, possibly with a thumpy bass.  Carrier seemed to be about 6924.13kHz as seen in the waterfall.

Thanks!

Recorder Catch on 6925USB

Caught a weak SSTV here.  This is the image I got after processing the audio a bit: (Scottie 1)



Kind of looks like the Insane Radio SSTV?

There seemed to be some show audio right around the noise floor following the SSTV; "heard" here until about 0559?

Thanks!
