Red Mercury Labs 6935 USB, 9/1/13, 0110z
« on: September 01, 2013, 0112 UTC »
9/1/2013, 6935 USB, 0110z: Peter Gabriel "Big Time", Red Mercury Labs ID
"Highwayman" Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Kris Kristofferson
0118z: Jane's Addiction?
0125z: Sign off, taking a break or switching frequencies?  Only able to copy a bit here and there.

Just fair through heavy summer QRN so far to the home tuner and indoor antenna.  Good signal peaks but rough conditions.

That supposed "Black Magic Woman" at 0114 UTC sounded an awefull lot like "The Highwayman", by the Highwaymen ;)

Audio sounds a little pinched tonight for some reason, maybe just conditions.

RML, 0110, 9/1/13.  Initially weak with Peter Gabriel, ID, has been getting stronger with ID and talk at 0118.

S7 now

Suddenly booming in at 0120
