Solar Federation 6960 USB 0135 UTC 14 MAR 2024
« on: March 14, 2024, 0135 UTC »
Music, S9, slightly noisy conditions but strong signal.

ID at 0138 - Solar Federation? Hard to make out.
"Attention All Planets" ID at 0140

My off-air recording:
https://archive.org/details/solar-federation-radio-6960-usb-0135-utc-14-mar-2024

There must really be a west coast transmitter, because my reception seriously dropped off after 0208!

Thanks for the broadcast!

(152- OM with distorted deep voice, IDs Solar Federation Radio, over tune).
155- OM with same voice thanks HF Underground.
155- Different OM: "Attention all planets of the Solar Federation" repeating, then "We have assumed control," also repeating.
155- "Shuffle Your Feet" by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.
(156- OM says "Solar...Federation," over tune).
