S5 and rough copy here @ 2310.
Signal suddenly peaked up to S9 at 2314 with announcer mentioning playing Aerosmith song for an HFU poster.
Back down to rough copy @ 2320.

"Season of the Witch" @ 0005.  Signal continues to peak and fade.

Signal looks big on the screen but little audio. I think there is localized QRM drifting up and down. A little music can be heard at times. Thanks for the show!

Shortwave Ghost, 6873.5, 0008, 7.26.15.  Started out with barely any audio, then suddenly at 0012 jumped to S8 with repeated e mail address ID, spooky sounds, another e mail ID, Jimmy Hendrix Star Spangled banner, ID, ghost sounds, 0022 off.

Thanks for the show.

Just got home from work and turned on the radio to catch The Ghost with a S7 and great audio with "Spooky" playing and ID at 0012 into Hendrix "National Anthem". Listening to it is being hampered by the approaching badass storms from the west. Static levels are hitting S9 at times. :( But thanks for playing my request of "Purple Haze" by Hendrix and for the #12 show this evening. ;D
