 this is one of those rare times when I tune in at the start of a broadcast instead of the last minute.   Heard XLR8 ID at 23:08z. Good signal on Satellit 750 portable. Not actually moving the needle on the S-meter but signal is quite strong & totally audible with good audio.

Got them at 2304, too.  Still going at 2311.

Fair strength, some interference, noise not too bad, little fading; a middle-quality signal.

Was in & out of the radio room, but heard what I think was a live version of "Lights Out" by the Angry Samoans. Nice signal here.
Thanks for the show!

Was recording on 6925 USB, and caught this with a very solid S8-9 signal.

Thanks XLR8!
