Wolverine Radio 6925U ("Run" theme?)
« on: June 05, 2011, 0207 UTC »
6/5/11
6925 USB
0203z: "Testing 1-2-3" opening, "Run Around Sue", "Runaway", "Nowhere To Run", "(I'm A) Roadrunner", "You Better Run" (early Felix Cavaliere version?), "Keep On Running"
0235z: Bonnie Raitt version of "Runaway", followed by Wolverine Radio ID, Jackson Browne "Running On Empty", Jeff Starship "Runaway"
0242z: Li'l Pat Benatar version of "You Better Run"

Fair to good over moderate local noise.  Improved to steady and good by 0215z.

Wolverine is one of the few pirates whose audio can make the Palstar cube speaker thump.

Ye olde '80s vault:
0325z: Signal started into fluttery fades after T-Rex, Lou Reed, Elvis Costello "Angels Wanna Wear My Red Shoes", Go-Gos "Our Lips Are Sealed", Bow Wow Wow "I Want Candy", Waitresses "I Know What Boys Like", Oingo Boingo, Wang Chung, Annie Lennox version of "Walking on Broken Glass"?

BTW, faux on IRC #pirateradio recorded this in Ireland:

6925 kHz USB, 0212 UTC

GREAT signal peaking 20/S-9 in Michigan  (so much for 'very poor' hf conditions, I guess... ya never know)

Playing some oldies, sounded like Beatles or a Beatles cover, into blues.

Clear ID at 0218, into "What ya tryin to do to my heart  (ah- chorus- "you better run, you better hide")

Into "Keep on running, keep on hiding" at 0222 UTC.
