Picked up an odd station.  Sounds like detuned calliope, with a female (?) voice sample with heavy delay in the mix.  Caught the music on video.  Didn't catch, because we were losing the signal, a deep male saying "This is Jim Morrison." Then "Jim Morrison is dead."  Then lost signal.

I've been hearing Doors songs for about the last hour.  "Red Mercury Labs comin' atcha from somewhere on the high seas" ID at 0432z.  Scorpions "Rock You Like a Hurricane" at 0441.

Signal about S9 through nasty local QRM.

Thanks RML!

And thanks for the QSL!
