Radio Free Whatever 4185 from 6925 USB 2247 UTC 07 Dec 2019
« on: December 07, 2019, 2248 UTC »
Signing on with Russian National Anthem, S6
2251 - Dick Weed talking about maybe going to lower frequency to extend the show.  That would probably be good for my reception.
2253 - "Internet Tears" Weaves, S6 with some fades.  [LOL, love your sense of humor (I doubt that will be stuck in my head)].
2256 - moving to '4 point something'

2259 - on 4185 USB now, checking to see if anyone has found him, S7
2301 - "Don't Look Down", S7 to S8
2306 - "You Don't Know How It Feels" cover by Yawn Mower [according to Shazam]
2311 - "Murder By Numbers" cover by Juliana Hatfield, excellent signal!
2315 - "Mothman" UNEQUAL Feat. Alex Maas [need to add this to my collection]
2338 - "Bread" by Norma Tanega
2358 - "The Link Is About To Die" Los Bitchos
0030 - "Mono No Aware" Great Grandpa, still S7 to S8
0105 - "Into The Surf" Foals, sounding good
0137 - "Noses In Roses, Forever" Desert Sessions
0158 - "Bright Lights" Iguana Death Cult, S9 now, great signal!
0228 - "Land Of The Dead" Elephant Stone, S7 to S8
0250 - "Question Mark" Bdrmm, S7.   [I think it is short for bedroom]
0305 - "Breaking Your Silence" Generationals, still booming in here, S8
0316 - Dick Weed getting ready to end the show [man, I still have more beers]

0323 - Dick Weed asking if we want him to continue the show -----   YES PLEASE!
0332 - "High Tide" Lemolo [great tune]
0355 - DW better start using a Low-Pass filter, rant from neighbor Ethel (she sounds like a lovely lady) LOL
0410 - "Halo" Liam Gallagher [on my last beer now]
0417 - "Fear Inoculum" Tool, [the bass sounds awesome thru the 15" woofers here]
0430 - "It Might Be Time" Tame Impala, still S8
0435 - "Hyperlife" Beck [calling it a night here - thanks for the entertainment]

0445 - LOL, I'm such a traitor.  (I still had the audio going as I was brushing my teeth.)  Have a great weekend and hope to hear you on the air again soon
0446 - off

Thanks for the great tunes tonight!
