Started off with a nice S6 signal with a blues tune by BB Kind, some deep fades and back up again with ID and email addy for QSL's at 0247 UTC... captainmorganshortwave@gmail.com , into another blues tune :)
0254 UTC Sounds like Jimi Hendrix with "Little Drummer Boy/Silent Night/Taps"
(I'm getting great audio here on S6 peaks, but some deep slow fades into the noise)
0259 UTC A Beatlesque song that someone in the chat room says is "Last Christmas"-Rubberband
0302 UTC An uptempo version of "Feliz Navidad"
0304 UTC OM with ID..."Captain Morgan Shortwave
0306 UTC Signal fade or QRT?

Thanks for some early Christmas entertainment Captain! :)
