RFW 6960 USB 2245 UTC 5 Jan 2019

2245 Dickweed talking, said no one has noticed him on the air yet, started up a song. SIO 222.
2251 Dickweed happy to be back on the air. We're happy to hear you as well!  Contemplating going lower in frequency
2300 Up to an SIO 333 now.
2325 Still a good signal here, perhaps SIO 444 on peaks. Dickweed - don't touch that dial!  8)

2246 Weak but present here in Denver, I'm able to understand Comrade Dick Weed but not make out much of the music. Yet....
2251 DJDW on the mic... can't yet tell if Assistant Stavin is present.
2306 really coming in now... "Host Body" Chad VanGaleen per Spotify
2310 RFW ID spot into "Tattered" Delicate Steve
2316 DJDW on the mic... I might have missed a song unless "Tattered" was six minutes long.
2318 by request, "Lie to Me" Five Seconds of Summer
2321 "The Ones That Miss Me" Ardency
2325 RFW ID into "Skim Milk" Flasher
2329 new song, Shazam not identifying it "How Do You Do It (Keith Sweaty Remix)" Yellow Ostrich & Keith Sweaty
2333 DJDW on the mic
2336 "Lemonade" Rubblebucket
2340 "Tal Uno" Barrie
2344 RFW ID into "Kihei" Mesita
2347 "Gelatin Mode" Post Animal
       Signal is quite good now.
2353 DJDW on the mic
        Hey DJDW, I'm quite happy with the current frequency FWIW.
2356 "Radio" Spissy
2359 "Lysander" Heaters
0003 RFW ID into "P.J.R." Hydromag
         Gotta go make dinner. Will catch the rest on the recording playback later.

Video of the RFW ID at 2344:  https://youtu.be/5Hseu7qemI4

Thanks for the show! It's been a LONG time since I last got you this well.
