Radio Free Mars 6950.2am

since 0013,   44333 here, but voice is very hard to understand (overmodulated?),  finally got a  clear ID at 0029 using lsb, followed by "the Bitch is Back", clip about the Animal Liberation Front releasing rabbits into the wild (lol), "Rocket Man"

QSL would be appreciated, audiofile available


Cheers, Terry

Tuned in at 0021z, sounds like a Bob Dylan song.  Elton John "The Bitch is Back" at 0028.  Audio is very muffled during the announcements, not bad during the music and comedy routines.  ID via #pirateradio as Radio Free Mars.  ID confirmed at 0035.

Huge signal, this would be excellent if the audio was cleaner.  S9+30 with only slight fade.

Thanks RFM!
