Pee Wee Radio, 6940 USB 0031 UTC 17 Dec 2017
« on: December 17, 2017, 0034 UTC »
Song "we wish you a merry Christmas" as a rock tune, fair/poor, weak signal, R2000 & dipole.
Heavy metal tune, "run run Rudolph." Heavy metal "Santa Claus is coming to town."
Local neighborhood QRM is slowly drifting down from 6960 to cover up this weak signal. Darn.
Several seconds of heavy metal "silver bells" and more QRM from OTH radar if that's what that is.
Barely heard a version of "little drummer boy."
Thanks Markokpik for the SSTV/FAX reception of the Pee Wee QSL picture.

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
