2020 Instrumental rock/electronic music, SIO 444. "Buddha" by Kontekst according to Shazam.
2026 RFW sign on anthem, down to SIO 222 now. I think that *thunk* *slam* sound I just heard was the NVIS window closing.  :-[
2049 Dickweed ranting ^H^H^H expressing concern over problems with his Windows system. Maybe we need to start a GoFundMe to buy him a Mac  ;D  (The signal has improved a little here, SIO 333 now)

Fair signal in New Hampshire, S5-S7

2026z USSR National Anthem
2028z DJ Dickweed is skeptical about the conditions but is going to go for it
2029z Now he's having technical problems with his computer, going to backup.  He's been working on some new playlists.
2035z Signal now up to S9...
2045z RFW ID (Stavin is no help, he's in hibernation)
2100z PC problem fixed, something was lying on a keyboard holding some keys down (still S9)
2122z Still S9, cueing a chick song - Dream Wife
2142z "I guess I'm done for now...",  "Until next time, do whatever..."

Thanks DJDW

S9+ in Grand Rapids, MI

LOUD!

Had to turn down the gain.  ADC overload on my RSP1a. This is a quality problem to have.  :D

Great show.  I'm now a Greta Van Fleet fan.
