6960 is only SINPO=13221 here, as opposed to 4030, which is booming in, as posted.
All reception from this location, radio and antenna.
QTH New Hampshire (70 miles north of Boston).
Tecsun S-8800 and Kenwood R-2000, with about 135 feet of wire thrown up in the trees.
eQSLs most appreciated to molvaniapoacher@gmail.com.

Tuned in at 0203 utc on Brookfield WI sdr with fair-poor S9 to S9+10 signal, pop tune sung by woman,
Drake R8, Kenwood R-2000, Panasonic RF-4900, Sony 2010, Realistic DX440, Grundig Satellit 500, 7mhz backyard dipole, Mt Prospect, IL 20miles (32km) NW of downtown Chicago. I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com

S-9 on the Kiwi at Smolinski's Farm. 43 Meters is holding up nicely tonight. Not "Arizona" by Mark Lindsay, why would you play such a thing? I know Mark's last name contains the theme for tonight's show, but that's no reason to torture dx'er's.
