XFM 6930 USB
« on: June 08, 2011, 0429 UTC »
Only able to copy partial ID so far, something "shortwave at gmail dot com"
6930 USB
0415--430z: Leonard Cohen "Everybody Knows", announcer talking, partial ID of something "Shortwave at gmail dot com", song sounded like Peter Gabriel
0434z: Depeche Mode "Enjoy the Silence"
0437z: Clear XFM ID and "Power of X" slogan, yay!  Meredith Brooks song.  Occasionally peaking over local RFI.
0502z: ID with xfmlive.com site, mentioned QOTSA "Feel Good Hit of the Summer".  Said loggings to HFU, Free Radio Cafe and FRN all appreciated.
0522z: Barely audible here at home now, but propagation seems to have stabilized via Colorado remote, not as many fades as 20 minutes ago.
0533z: DJ "Redhat"?  I may have that wrong.  Seether version of Wham! "Careless Whisper", asking if listeners are interested in DRM.
0549z: Sneaker Pimps "Six Underground".  Love dat Kelli.
0553z: Sign-off chatter about "guilty pleasure" songs, a couple other tunes including Boards of Canada.

Really slick production quality, very professional sounding ID's and segues.

Here at home, occasional fair peaks, mostly buried under local RFI.
Very good via Colorado remote on global tuners.
