0003 Abracadabra
0004 Pumpkin Patch Radio ID by OM in scary voice, followed by laughing and a Halloween rap
0007 PPR IDs and addy
0011 IDs by OM, laughter
0017 Another ID; was this a different voice?
0019 ID, laughter
0023 ID, laughter, into a song

Good to hear you again PPR!
Very nice on the IDs; music seems at a much lower level.

Mostly S4, fair to decent copy.
"Abracadabra", then ID @ 0004, along with ghoulish laughter.
ID and email @ 0008z

Music tends to fade, but ID's are up to S6.
A bit of "Afterlife" and then another ID @ 0025z
Thanks for the Halloween show!

Very good signal here on 6930 KHZ USB at 0005 UTC tune in with some kind of rap followed by ID repeated slowly twice at 0007 UTC... pumpkinpatchradio@gmail.com. followed by music
0011 UTC ID again repeated very slowly, and again at 0012 UTC followed by some hideous laughter
0014 UTC ID again!
I'm not sure how to describe this broadcast! :o Strange rap with ladies chanting at 0017 UTC, more ID's, then some strange ghoulish rapping at 0019 UTC.
0023 UTC Pumpkin Patch Radio...Pumpkin Patch Radio...absolutely ghoulish sounding!
OFF at 0024 UTC I think!
Thanks for the bizarre program tonight PPR op! I'll be having bad dreams about killer pumpkins...again :o
Ummm...eTrick or eTreat?

Fair signal into NH tonight, S6-S7 and mostly staying above the noise.  The ID's are at a much higher level than the music S9 vs S6-S7

0017z ID into "Who Took the Cat from the Trick-or-Treat Bag?"
0021z ID, pumpkinpatchradio@gmail.com
0024z ID and off.  Seems like that last tune had the audio cranked up to the same level as the ID's

I may be hearing it at 0022. ID, very slow....and then into laughter.

Into some music. Not super strong here, but steady.
