UNID Radio 6930 USB 0117 UTC 24 MAR 2018
« on: March 24, 2018, 0119 UTC »
0117 "Tubesteak Boogie" ZZ Top - nice strong signal here
0120 "I Wanna Drive You Home" ZZ Top - slightly off frequency, sounds best at 6929.98. Took a real deep fade at 0122 but back up by 0124
0124 "Ten Foot Pole" ZZ Top
0129 "Leila" ZZ Top
0132 "Don't Tease Me" ZZ Top
0136 "It's So Hard" ZZ Top
0142 "Pearl Necklace" ZZ Top
0146 SSTV


0148 "Heaven, Hell, Or Houston" ZZ Top
0150 "Party On The Patio" ZZ Top
     0151-0153 deep fades, think I won't be copying this for much longer.
0154 faded out for good.

Thanks for the show!
