Signed on with SSTV then into tonight's story "The Man In The Moon"
Very good here, SIO 444.
This is a fun station, thanks for the old sci fi shows. Old Time Radio has some competition! :-)

Here is a link to a HQ version of tonights program "the man in the moon": https://archive.org/download/OTRR_X_Minus_One_Singles/XMinusOne55-05-29006TheManInTheMoon.mp3

this show is very appropriate as it deals with radio transmissions from the moon!

I do not have a signal report as I live next to a 5KW am station that blocks out most listening.

I live very close to 5KW am station and so no DXing for me. :(. I use lots of webradios.

SDR Recording Catch

0010 - Faintly hearing/seeing  SSTV just above the terrible QRM/N level.
          No decode on this one.  :(

          Not hearing the accompanying program.  :(

0011:30 - Saw/heard  in the waterfall what I think was someone tuning
                away from frequency ?
