SDR recording catch, 0230 sign on, ID at 0242. Mostly an SIO 333, some better peaks and some dips.

Great to hear XLR8 again, it's been a while!

I'm bummed that I missed this. Fridays have become too unreliable for me to either record or hang out in the shack hunting for pirates (aside from Ball Smacker) so I got nothing to check. I'm posting for one reason only - so that the op sees this and is encouraged to keep on broadcasting, at least a few more times. Maybe tonight. Hint hint.
