Signing on now with Russian NA  S-9. It's their 1941 Time Warp Show featuring the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.
Excellent show Dick Weed & Stavin!

Unfortunately, the signal is just barely above the noise here in central Oklahoma.

Just tuned in at 2138z and heard a radio announcement about the attack on Pearl Harbor and then a big band song. Strapping S9 + 10 signal with little fading.

RFW, 6975.7 AM, 2148, 12.6.14.  Unidentified music, clear announcements about attack on Pearl Harbor.

Poor - S5 & noisy conditions.

2202 Went to get some coffee, and came back to a very nice S6 signal well above the noise.

Hearing RFW while testing a loop amplifier.  S6 on S5 local noise from two sources on the same freq, and can only depress one of them at a time.  The rotor is getting a workout here!

Thanks RFW!
