Fairly good signal here at 0011 UTC tune-in with man announcer thanking Dr. Rock for stopping in, then ID's as PBS Underground, then ID'd next song as "Down With the Sickness"-Disturbed.
0025 UTC Playing the Allman Brothers-"Jessica" with clean clear audio here!
0028 UTC "Who Are You"-The Who (Thanks for the shoutout during the song!!! That was really unique!)
Man announcer with ID, mentions of HFU, Pirate Radio Cafe, email address, more shoutouts (THANKS!) then off at 0034 UTC
(Thanks for the show tonight! Not much happening on Monday nights around here!) :)
Now if I can figure out the email address given....I hate selective fading  :'(

Caught the very end of the show with "Who are You" and then signoff at 0033z. About S5 signal. Band was very noisy.

Tuned in at 0023 UTC on 6945 kHz USB and just beginning to play the Allman Brothers "Jessica," a classic rock favorite of mine! At 0026 UTC John DiLomberto said "we're going to wrap up the evening with The Who on PBS Underground." 0032 ID'd with e-mail address PBS.Underground@yahoo.com and said: "Broadcasting on 6945 kHz USB, this is PBS Underground, have a good night."

Fair signal into northern NJ tonight, peaking at S9 db, with an overall SINPO=35433 on my Eton e1 + PAR End-Fed Z antenna.

Please QSL and thank you for the music tonight;  my first logging of your station!

73's,
