Tuned in at 2343utc, weak signal, hear male speaking. I'm going to go back to Wolverine Radio now.

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

2345z  "and I'm DJ Koot, you got that"
Said that it is a relay broadcast which would explain the good signal that I have tonight.

Good signal into the Great Plains. Music by Guns N' Roses and Tom Petty from Studios in Toronto.
At 2349 "Jet Airliner" by Steve Miller Band.
Off @ 2357 but had some comments about QSLs and not wanting to interfere with another station.  Did not clearly copy the comments.

just heard
Tom Petty, ID by DJ Koot from Carpeted studios in Toronto, relayed by various but just 1 now.  Steve Miller Band tune Jet Airliner.
Nice solid signal.  DJ Koot with some audio problems or xmtr problems.  s9 down here in Philly. Otherwise very nice audio and signal!!!
yeah, i agree it might be really hard for the snowflakes to figure out how to spin the dial and listen to something else on the free radio...
Said No QSl's without an MP3.

73 thanks Koot!
happy Easter!
