SINPO=23232, and deteriorating under noise.

225- Song, can't ID under noise.
225- Talking, sounds like an ID?
226- "Dreams" by Beck.
231- Audio by Redhat, can't copy details under QRN.
231- New tune, but can't ID it. Sounds like a mellow indie/pop tune.
235- Audio by Redhat, still can't copy details.
239- New tune, sounds more metal. I think that's Tool? Noise creeping up more.
244- Redhat speaking again. Gives email address and then into next song.
245- "Down When I'm Loaded" by Oleander.
248- Redhat talking with some effects. "From the Scorpions" as next song. "Music to the power of X." Gives email address, then into next song. Signal improving but fades in and out a bit.
248- "Lovedrive" Remix by The Scorpions.
253- Redhat talking. Signal back under the noise, so can only make out a few words here and there. He IDed at 301, with music to the power of X and then recorded ID promo spot.
302- New song. Sounds like hard rock/metal (Metallica like).

Pretty good signal tonight with Redhat giving out the phone number. I'm kinda surprised that people aren't calling in. Some talk about how it would be to be an HS senior involved in spring sports & have it ruined by C-19. He was also talking about trash pandas

Fair + signal into Victoria, BC at 03:15 tune-in with quick XFM ID and back into music.  All by themselves on the band here, so an excellent choice.  Should improve as darkness sets into Victoria in the next 30 minutes.   
Sounding great at 03:30 with Radioactivity by Kraftwerk
Nice XFM chat at 03:36
Listened to the full program until pulling the plug, just before 05:07 UTC.  Thanks, RedHat!   And, thanks for reaching out to me on the air and via e-mail.  I'd say XFM is the best sounding pirate on the air today.
