WTF Radio 4030 USB 0139 UTC 19 November 2022
« on: November 19, 2022, 0143 UTC »
Beating Ballsmacker to the frequency this evening. SINPO 44444 on an SDR in New England.

0139 - REM, "What's the Frequency, Kenneth?"
I can't find it now but I could swear that somebody "tail-ended" BSR a few weeks ago with the same extended version of "WTF, K?"
