RFW 6935 USB 0013 UTC 5 APR 2014

Sounds like RFW trying to sign on, I hear brief bits of the Soviet anthem, strong signal but really bad audio.

He's still trying...

"This is not the echo I use.  I don't know what is going on".

The audio is very good, hopefully the show will start soon.

0050Z Quite weak on the west coast right now. Music heard, possibly old Soviet national anthem followed by male announcer with Russian accent. Just copyable above my noise floor.

01:08 tuned into music---is this RFW back on? Solid S8 signal, audio has an echo sound to it.
01:29 more rock music  
01:34 ID with song groups.  2 OP,s brief banter. "QRM" repeated several times. Mentioned song from Halloween to be played next.

Thanks for the Show RFW!
