Is there ever too much Elmo and Patsy? Where did he go?

I just got a pm saying I got what I wished for. That's not exactly true, I issued a dare and WANK took me up on it, like any real pirate would.

More Elmo and Patsy, he's going to hit the two hour goal.

Signal peaking around S9+12 with a fair bit of fading (down to S9+8) above an S7 noise level (SINFO 55344). Any chance this is Ballsmacker Radio in disguise? That's the only pirate I've ever logged previously on this frequency.

I just confirmed that this is in fact Ballsmacker Radio by going to his website & verifying that his livestream matches this broadcast.

I believe it was strictly a coincidence that Ballsmacker happened to have Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer in their playlist for tonights show at 0206 UTC.....Next year my mantra will be "Say No to Elmo & Patsy"....and while we're at it, throw Mariah Carey in there for good measure.  ;)

You're right Skip. I had a brand new Continental Transmitter as Grand Prize, but after this, the dare is off!

Ballsmacker has ruined my memories of the bowling alley's of my youth and the slatterns that hung out in them, with his actions tonight,I de-pirate him.

Skip, you've got to let go of these hard feelings and embrace the monumental talent that is Elmo and Patsy

The actual Elmo and Patsy vid is up the page on that Youtube link and close captioned. Study it, there will be a test.
