XFM, 6950 usb
« on: August 19, 2011, 0356 UTC »
XFM, 6950usb, 8-19-11, SINPO 35233
Nice strong signal here in Chicago, but a ton of crash. Dance tunes since about 0345z with
brief announcements "This is Radio Station XFM - Please stand by - The broadcast is about to begin" plus other announcements
about SSB.

0400z - Toad the Wet Sprocket - All I Want
0407z - ID and email address. Much weaker than earlier. About S2

XFM - long intro w/ dance instrumental and various audio bits
"All I Want" by Toad the Wet Sprocket
Weezer "Say It Ain't So"
0406z: XFM ID, current UTC time, e-mail addy
Song by 311, don't know title.
0440z: Bjork "Army of Me"
0448z: SSTV after Billy Idol "Rebel Yell" - didn't have MMSSTV running, only caught part of image, something blue against dark background.  B-52's "Summer of Love"

SINPO=33323, fairly good clear peaks, lots of fades to inaudible, usual Texas crunchy QRN and suburban RFI.  Very slick, pro sounding production quality.
