Really enjoying the slick playlist for tonight. Excellent choice in tunes. Signal is very wide with a bit of noise. Thanks for the great broadcast tonight, XFM Shortwave.

I'm still here Redhat and it does feel like I'm in my own little world. Can't see the stars but it's a quiet night here. I liked the new Pearl Jam :)

Saw the posts that Redhat was on, so I checked my radio around 0458-0505 UTC and heard Redhat talking with music in the background, then a song started at about 0504. Audible out here near Seattle, but not quite readable through the noise.
