Another entertaining evening with Johnny Tobacco at the cigar microphone!
Johnny was digging into the old 45's this evening while discussing the subject of cucarachas and Cuban cigars! S8 signal most of the last hour and a half here.
0204 UTC "Que Sera Sera"
0230 UTC Johnny needs some sleep and says Good Night, then plays "All Along the Watchtower"-Jimi Hendrix!!! How did that 45 get into the pile 8)
Then follows it with Hey Joe...must be Jimi night at the Abu Dhabi residence :)
Off at 0236 UTC

S5 here @ 0216 with ID.  Static crashes up to S8, so not so great copy.

Just a note...
Nothing here at the home QTH, but I did sneak in a listen on the Twente Remote SDR last night.
He mentioned being Johnny Tobacco tonight, playing songs of differing genres.
He was the loudest of 2 stations seen on the remote (Focus Int'l. the other), and mentioned his transmitting power.
