6925AM - Pirate Radio Boston - 0210z
« on: March 15, 2013, 0224 UTC »
Been listening since sign on, but didn't note the exact time.  Played a great 'chicken' version of 'Psycho Killer' at around 0212z, followed by several ID's.
About S7, audio a little weak.
Thanks for the show!

SDR catch. 0206z sign on, with a carrier, the music got going a minute later.
Mostly an S7 signal, with some peaks to S9 around 0232z.
Off at 0256z.

Recorder Catch on 6925USB

Strong at S9 from s/on, starting to fade a bit after 0230, but heard until show's end.  Also heard CW on top of this, but have not decoded it yet.

Thanks PRB!
