Getting a pretty fair signal into Alberta tonight, despite some local QRM.

Recorder catch:

6925 USB SIO 232-333

Decent signal overall with fading conditions lowering signal level close to noise floor at times, but audible throughout.  Same details as others.

01:41z-03:08z TCS relay show





Audio (complete show): http://archive.org/download/ShortwavePirateRadioCont/TheCrystalShipRelay6925Usb0141z-0308z02-15-13.mp3

Good to hear TCS on the airwaves again & thanks for the relay! :)
