Big carrier tuned up on 6937.9 KHz for a few; went off, then came back on with music at 2254 UTC. Very solid S9 signal here. It may be slightly over-modulated.

2254z Dance/electronic song for the opener
2259z Pyscho Chicken (remember CSIC?)
2302z Pirate Radio Boston ID, supporting Pirates for Peace, pirateradioboston@gmail.com
2306z another ID, after a song, mention of featuring music from Boston area
2306z Ra-Ra Riot

I've got them here in NY too at 2313 UTC with an uptempo song I don't recognize.  S9 signal, SIO 444.  I agree the mod sounds a bit on the hot side. ID, announcement and e-mail address by Charlie Loudenboomer at 2315 UTC.  Mentioned songs by Passion Pit and Ra Ra Riot.  Next up is "Coin Operated Boy" at 2316.  Voice modulation sounded good, it's just the music that is slightly over-driven.  Song with male vocals at 2321 UTC.  Signal still nice and strong and steady, almost no fading.  "The Love Club" by Lorde at 2325 UTC.  Really enjoying hearing these "new" songs (at least for me).  Thanks CL!

2335 "Black Chandelier" by Biffy Clyro (it really helps that CL announces all these song titles)
