Not super strong here tonight, the band is kind of flat.  But S6 or so, and good audio.  Excellent work WDDR!

Also, got a chance to try out my new automated Pirate SSTV page.  tonight I put together an automated page that uploads whatever SSTV from whatever freq that specific radio is tuned to.  The intent is to leave it on 24/7 on 6935 USB, and only tune it off when a specific station is tuned in.  Such as in this case, I tuned it down to 4015 kHz USB in time for the second SSTV image.

It will say at the top what freq it is tuned to.

http://www.tokenradio.net/Radio/SSTV/SSTV.htm

It is a work in progress, and so will change over the next little while, but nice that the first image it uploaded was a WDDR image ;)

(edit)  Has gotten a bit better as the evening went on.  Wife and I went to town to grab some ice cream in the middle of the show.  Was able to listen the whole way to and from town in the mobile, but in town some of the power line noise killed it.  Nice job WDDR!

0225Z 59+  into Coastal SC, audio on music great, but DJ is lower but copyable, better audio now you changed

0250z 59 still, music audio is fine, but your voice seems like it has too much on the low end, need a few highs added, otherwise sounding great as usual

0429z signal has taken a major dive here, now s7 with a s5 noise floor, music is just about copy-able here now
0431zjust as I posted that, so the signal came out the noise, almost like the power was turned up, now s9+10 again

Solid copy into SE Neb. S-9. Been listening for about two hours. Like the idea you're sending SSTV images, neat twist. You asked for requests, and it seems you are playing stuff that is a little off the wall or not especially PC, so here's one for you to try to find:  Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show - Up on the Mountain..
Kenwood R-1000 and a 65' longwire... also an Icom 720a, hell of a receiver...  portable is a Sony ICF6500W, one of the best portables ever built...and various Trans-O's, Strato-worlds, etc...

1/1/2019 4015 KHz USB 0425z with Lou Reed's 'Walk On The Wild Side'  about S9 on peaks with slow shallow fades and lots of local noise and what appears to be audio distortion on the signal.

0435z Sounds like he's talking about me!  Thanks dude!!  Perhaps a repeat of the SSTV earlier?  Can't tell, as the virtual soundcard on the winradio got screwed up a while back and I haven't quite sorted it out yet.
0437z Mama's and the Papa's 'California Dreamin'
0640z B52's 'Roam' Love that tune!!
0650z --Signoff--

**Something old, something new, how about Everlast feat. Santana 'Put Your Lights On'?**



Thanks for the show!
