On with Russian National Anthem, then DJ Dick Weed adjusting on his transmitter.  S5 here, audio sounds fine here through the noise.
0001 - off temporarily, while he gets a flashlight
0002 - back
0003 - DJ singing to test his audio
0004 - "Taking Up Space" Mustard Service
0012 - "Rebels" New Mystics, mostly S5, occasional peaks to S7 and occasional fades to nothing.
0027 - "Rewind" Triptides.  S5 to S9

0023z Fair copy from RFW in New Hampshire tonight, S8 with the storm static hovering around S8-S9
0026z Getting nice fade-ups to S9+10
0042z ID from DJ Dickweed (who's not feeling too good tonight - hope you feel better soon)
0044z Signed off - Thanks for the show DW, sounded pretty decent through the static...
