Radio Free Whatever 6960 USB 2331 UTC 20 Apr 2016

Sounds like DJ Dickweed just started up. He was doing some sort of rant about how he needs to loose weight and was wondering who can all hear him.
Well, I sure hear ya Dickweed!

S9+5 (forgot that the gain was still low)
USB filter set to 4kHz wide.

Check out the RFW QRM.  ;)

Very strong here at 2338z, about S9+20. Looks like sign on was 2331 as per the SDR recording.

Comrade - want to lose weight? Try low carb. I lost 85 lbs about 15 years ago and have kept it off. Particularly LCHF - Low Carb High Fat. I'll stop preaching now  ;D

2348: ID and list of songs played, shoutouts.

FYI: You're making it to Ireland, according to a Facebook posting.

2339 tuning in to decent signal, some QRM and fading but music clear. "This Must Be Home" P-Sol
2349 OM speaking but some local beeping signal is destroying the transmission here.😞 (Just to be clear this sounds like a beacon of some sort.)
2358 whatever it was, it's gone. Hopefully for good. NIN playing.
0002 Signal MUCH improved, now I can enjoy the show! DJD talkiing, more HFU shoutouts, (not that I heard the first ones due my reception issues, but thanks for that). Into "Do You Love Me" Guster
0009 "Saint Joe on the School Bus" Marcy Playground "
0012 RFW Station ID into "Steady As She Goes" a classic from The Raconteurs
0016 RFW Station ID into "Dirty Sheets" The Orwells
0018 DJD talking
0019 some classic shoegaze - "Chrome Waves" Ride
0023 "Afraid of Everyone" The National
0028 "You Kill" Eternal Summers
0031 DJD talking
0032 "Drugs" Dreamers
0036 "High Party" Ted Leo
0041 "Habits (Stay High)" Tove Lo
0044 RFW station ID into "Under the Pressure" The War On Drugs
     BTW I'm getting this on the PL 600 without the external antenna. Hard to get the BFO right in it, but there it is.
0052 DJD thanks to listeners and OFF.

Thanks for the show! I have to agree with the others, this is the best sounding transmission I've heard you yet.

Radio Free Whatever on 6960 kHz USB at 2353 utc
with "Got me wrong"- Alice in Chains

NICE strong audio, little fading, peaking S-7 in Lansing, MI

SINPO=45544


Now SOLID S-9 in Lansing, 55555 at 0009 UTC, probably the best I've ever heard you, virtually no fading, sounds like you're broadcasting from my station monitor  ;)

Thanks for the shoutout, and for broadcasting tonight when I can listen! (since I'm not busy elsewhere  ;D )

ROCK On, Comrade!

Just got home from work to catch RFW here in central MN with a rock solid S9 and excellent audio playing a tune from a band called Ride at 0021. Glad I got home to catch your show Dickweed! ID at 0023. If you are doing requests, how about something from Green Day comrade. ;D
