RFW Relay 6925 AM 2356 UTC 2 Sep 2017
« on: September 02, 2017, 2358 UTC »
Tuned in to hear a spacey tune, then some announcements from DJ Dickweed.  He mentioned playing songs from the Foo Fighters and a new tune from Beck.  S8 in NY.

0011 UTC - Signal is S9, the AM relay sounds really good in WNY.  ;D
0019 UTC - The AM relay sounds better than the original on 6965 USB.

Tuned in at 0010utc, poor with some static from rain, heard Dick Weed talking, signed on to HFU and saw this is a relay, I retuned to 6965usb. R-2000 & dipole.
(edit) I have this 6925am on the RF-4900 now while 6965usb on the R-2000.   
Drake R8, Kenwood R-2000, Panasonic RF-4900, Sony 2010, Realistic DX440, Grundig Satellit 500, 7mhz backyard dipole, Mt Prospect, IL 20miles (32km) NW of downtown Chicago. I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com
