S4/S5 here at 0045 UTC with another eclectic selection from the XLR8 musical library :)
0048 UTC Another tune of indeterminate origin
0101 UTC "Pop Music"-M (origin determined on this one ;D)
0110 UTC "X-L-R-8" ID with some reverb!
0145 UTC and S7 peaks well above the noise....same level as TCS on 6876
0152 UTC Cool song! Wish I had Shazam...
0200 UTC SSTV! I gotta figure out how this MMSTV works....
Seems to be a varied number of ID's this evening amidst songs of indeterminate origin...funky tunes and punky tunes and others you can dance to....
0212 UTC And some reggae too!
0223 UTC "Fazon"-Sopwith Camel  :) Thanks XLR8! That was a funky tune for the early 70's! Awesome!
0232 UTC "Dear Mr. Fantasy"-Crosby, Stills, and Nash version from the CSN box set! Cool! Love that Stephen Stills wah wah pedal!
0239 UTC SSTV
0250 UTC Signal has dropped down to S5 peaks with the S-meter bouncing around a bit now.... :(
0301 UTC "Waiting In Vain"-Bob Marley (there's one for DJ Dickweed!)
0316 UTC Hmmm...can't remember if that was the Radio Bangladesh or Radio Nepal Interval Signal there....is that the intro to a song? I'm getting old...it might have been All India Radio ???
0320 UTC SSTV
0322 UTC One final "X-L-R-8" and OFF
Hmmm....are you taking requests tonight XLR8? How about "Fazon" by Sopwith Camel? I think that's one that hasn't been ever played on pirate radio before ???


Thanks for the really long show tonight! It was appreciated, and thanks for the request too! :)

Picked up signal ~0051 with clear ID @ 0110.
Usual selection of nice eclectic music.
Faint signal slowly improving as local sunset approaches.
Decent audio when static levels fade a bit.
Good show.
Just a boy with his radio and some wire.
Location: Omaha, Nebraska
QSLs always appreciated.
