Good signal with strength at S8. Pretty clear audio. Thanks for the broadcast.

Bandwidth is 5k at the moment, but could be 7k for those with a stronger signal. Must be Mix Radio International.

ID at 0035 utc. Nice PSA & IDs.

Tuned in at 0101utc, poor/weak signal, hear pop/rock music, (edit at 0218) wide variety of music from 1980's, still on at 0228 when I turned off set.

I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com
