2340  Among the 6 other stations (not including someone one 6920 airing SSTV), I heard someone here with unknown Pop/Dance mx.  Weak but probably readable.  Clear.

Well, I was always under the impression that we don't get to hear many pirates here on the West Coast, but XFM is peaking S9 into the SF East Bay right now, on my Belka DX and 70 foot wire at 30-50 feet.

Was scanning the pirate band and found "Chase" by Georgio Moroder playing on a very strong signal here near Seattle as of 0107 UTC.

Very nice to see X-FM and Redhat getting out on this signal, too. I was listening earlier on the 6850 USB relay via MRI.

Just tuned in at 1:11utc to theme song from coast to coast am.  SIO of 415.  Very nice signal tonight.  I will keep listening.  As far as relays for XFM this is the strongest signal so far for me.  HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
