Was listening to the 5185 frequency via the Atwater, Ohio, SDR, where the X-FM signal is OK, but this frequency's signal is VERY GOOD. Not yet making it out here directly to the West Coast, however ...

0010 UTC: Redhat talking about his plans to play new music, then talking on the phone to a listener from California listening via a Pennsylvania SDR.
0013 UTC: Redhat gave email, then took another call, this one from Irish from parts unknown.
0015 UTC: Redhat explaining who Irish is, doing HFU shout-outs, canned X-FM ID, MRI ID, and then "Don't Matter" by Kings of Leon.
0020 UTC: Now listening via the Northern Utah SDR, which has a good signal as the sun gets closer to setting out west here. This SDR also is receiving the 6285 USB relay pretty well.
0022 UTC: X-FM canned ID into "The Emptiness Machine" by Linkin Park.
0025 UTC: Canned ID into "Monsters" by All Time Low (feat. Demi Lovato and blackbear).
0028 UTC: Redhat taking another phone call from a caller talking about 5185 frequency's reception and making a music request.
Redhat, can you play a song by Sprints, the Irish indie rock band who dropped their debut album earlier this year?
0031 UTC: Redhat back on the mic talking again, reading emails, talking about who else is on the air.
0034 UTC: "Dalai Lama" by Rammstein.
0040 UTC: X-FM and MRI IDs into "Burn the Witch" by Queens of the Stone Age.
0044 UTC: Canned ID into "How Not to Drown" by CHVCHES & Robert Smith (with a quick Stereo Tools promo spoken over the early part of the song).
0049 UTC: Redhat back on the mic, reviewing the previously played songs, and reading emails. Then urged listeners to vote and getting up to date on HFU shout-outs.
0058 UTC: "High and Low Places" by Beach Weather.
0101 UTC: X-FM and MRI IDs, then "What Do I Have to Do?" by Stabbing Westward.
0105 UTC: "Ulysses" by Franz Ferdinand. Toward the end of the song, sounds like another operator's trying to talk over this relay. Now talking over Redhat, too.
***
0214 UTC: Redhat doing a long list of HFU shout-outs as he gets ready to end the program. Says he may try to get back on the air soon again, thanks the relay services, and goes out with "How I Need You" by Supernova 1006.
0217 UTC: MRI ID as the song started.

Great to hear you again, Redhat!

Thanks Redhat and MRI for the broadcast.
