Radio Ga-Ga 6925 U
« on: January 24, 2011, 0036 UTC »
On at 0018z.

0018z Radio Ga-Ga - Queen
0021  RGG ID, Princes of the Universe - Queen
0025  Dunno this one...
0028  Don't Take Me Alive - Steely Dan
0033  SSTV, but only got a partial decode, sounds like someone bumped the VFO in mid transmission.



S5 on fades, S9 on peaks.

Thanks Ga-Ga!
