Very weak here, and I suspect they just came here from 6960?

0111 Let's Spend the Night 2gether - spun the loop a bit and getting slightly better reception now
0117 solid ID, back to Stones
0121 Can't Always Get What U Want
0128 Cool AM IDs, Sympathy 4 the Devil, Street Fightin Man
0144 Tumblin Dice
0151 That great RTN audio just starting to be heard here during Heartbreaker - sig up to S8 on peaks
0200 Sig has been on the decline for last few minutes; thought I heard an RTN ID here, and the mx no longer seems to be Stones?  Very tough copy now
0212 Emotional Rescue

Thanks Cool AM and RTN; hoping the signal picks up here.

CoolAM, presumed Radio True North relay per others' postings, 1-13-14, 0109-0202, 6.935.06 AM, signal buried under the static but i can hear programming.  at 0128 announcer mention of USA and ID.....Rolling Stones, "please allow me to introduce myself..." at 0129.  just not getting much stronger here...buried under the static again at 0145 but can hear music.  Hearing "tumbling dice" at 0146.  At 0148 "i need love to make me happy."  Hearing "heartbreaker" at 0152.  "CoolAM Radio" ID at 0154.  back down under the noise at 0202.  would appreciate your qsl.  thanks.

Can't alway get what you want

The noise is too high now. Sun just went down so hopefully it will improve.

Got them about S-7 with QRN and QSB in northern Canada. Thanks, RTN for the relay. It's always great to hear you!
Please QSL to MaplRadio@gmail.com

Next weeks contest: guess how many Volkswagons can fit in Joy Behars mouth. I pick five.
