SDR catch. 0304z sign on with an S8 carrier. The modulation could have been a little low? But still good overall.

Thanks for the show, WAZU!

Caught sign on at 0305 and sign off at 0332.

Pretty decent signal here in SE PA.  There were deep fades however in which I heard very little.  But when in it was good.

I have the ID as WAZEDU but the provided email of wazedu@mail.com bounces.  Asked for reception reports.   Did anyone catch a different address ?  

Played a mix of Pirate songs and a Grand Funk tune. Heard the 'Mean and Green' report.

Cadowolf, I understand your confusion on the email as Fred was using the English/Canadian pronunciation for z as "zed".
