00:04 Can barely hear music above noise level. S4 (interfering by someone trying to whistle above the music)
00:16 ID heard - WHVR??  WPVR??   OP mentioned Red Mercury - possibly RML  Uh...OK...thanks to others here--it's RML
01:12 SSTV signal ---though it seems to be hicupping a bit - and not transferring signal with fits and starts
01:18 SSTV trying it again... choppy signal...
01:21 OP came back requesting QSO from anyone.
01:24 OP contacted BOR for QSO

Thanks for the Show RML!

Down in the static here in northcentral PA -- strange that there's such a difference between here and Maryland.  I wouldn't have found it without Chris's post.  Hearing Stone Temple Pilots (I think) with some idiot now whistling over it at 00:05.

Nice S6-S7 signal here.

0016 RML ID..."they're far out to sea tonight"
0022 "in very deep water tonight...Spike sez the water pH is 8.8..very lucrative contract is about to expire"
0043 "I'm in the radio room screwing off...that's what I do..."
0053 the Yoshi has been reverse-engineered; BW normally allocated to email and forums is diverted tonight to research

Only partial luck with the SSTV:



Thanks RML!

Hearing the same thing here in south central PA, just barely above the noise.

0017z: Heard a male announcer, but can't make out any ID, plus the whistling is still going on.

Red Mercury Labs doing OK in NH tonight, S6 and about even with the noise (started out way down in the noise).

0016z Red Merc ID -  "I can feel the warm tingling sensation when I stand near that dipole on the yardarm"
0020z Red Hot Chili Peppers - The Zephyr Song
0023z ID, In deep waters, PH 8.8 - No internet connection tonight...

After signoff there was an SSTV that kept dropping out resetting MMSSTV so I didn't get a copy.
Then we had a nice QSO between Red Mercury and two other ops (Blue Ocean and ?)

RML, 6935 U, 0038, 3/6/13.  Music, 0045 ID and perhaps e mail, some talk, more industrial sounding rock. 

Just barely above the noise level - S2.

Wish I could hear you better RML.

Tuned in at 00:25.  Can just barely hear above the S4 noise floor tonight here in north alabama. >:(  Tell Spike to run faster in the hamster wheel to get the voltage higher!  Kinda hard to hear but as always thanks for the show!
