1522 UTC "Losing My Religion"-REM
1526 UTC OM intro to "Jeremy"-Pearl Jam (Cut off mid song)
1529 UTC "The Pretender"-Foo Fighters
(So far S7 peaks with very nice audio and fades)
1532 UTC OM with "Welcome to ?Buddha? Radio....." repeated, then into what sounds like instrumental electronica with Hindu chanting? Anyway..."ambient music"  :)
(Signal has drifted down from 6926 to 6925.7)

1542 UTC OFF

 My first solid logging of Buddha Radio! Thanks for the cold Sunday morning entertainment! Please QSL!  8)
I recorded the show if you are interested!
(Listened back on the recording and the ID went something like this "Welcome to Buddha Radio....we control the horizontal and the vertical...sit down...close your eyes...relax)

Weak signal with little fading but static was a problem throughout my reception. Interesting style of music played from my tune in at 1533z to the end. Was not able to id any of the songs but at tune in sounded like those Australian Aborigine's musical instruments. Liked the overall calming music played. I agree with Skipmuck's update on the first id at 1541 and add to it "Welcome to Buddha Radio we will control the horizontal and the vertical as well as the color sit down in lotus post and close your eyes relax." Various other id's by a female voice and off at 1541z.

 Here is a recording of The Buddha Radio . The distance is 800 miles, the little transmitter is 10 watts.
Not bad Buddha. You live long and prosper.

The QSL from Zeke says the transmitter is powered from a motorcycle battery!

Radio is dying. We need to give it shelter
