WEZL 6933 USB 0017 UTC 11 SEP 2020
« on: September 11, 2020, 0017 UTC »
Signal gone mid-song at 0019
Then back on a minute later with Tutti Frutti
0037 "Broadcasting from the Newton Crater, point your antennas toward the moon. One of these days we might QSL."
0039 Op sounds like her working both sides of a QSO ;)
0040 Heard it Through the Grapevine
0042 We're losing power! Standby for QRP! Gonna go down to CB 12 watts.
0044 WEZL Station ID
0048 Chuck Berry, Carol
0049 Peter Gunn Theme
0052 couple bars of Bad to the Bone
0053 We Want WEZL! We Want WEZL!
0054 Off the air

Thanks for the show! Great entertainment!

Here's how it sounded at my QTH:

0021 "Tutti Frutti," pause, a Chuck Berry into maybe surf guitar? Blues, early rock, ID and Wolman Jack growl into several ID's - "Hey, Mr. Postman,"

S6 here - up to S7 by 0038.

Transmitter problems and back on then several songs, talk, ID, abruptly off mid song at 0052.

WEZL Radio with huge S9+10 signal.

0030 - Wanda Jackson
0031 - ID
0031 - Paul Anka
0033 - Mr Postman
0037 - WEZL signing out from the Newton Crater on the Moon
0039 - WEZL op talking to another op following with CCR
0042 - decreasing to CB radio power. I still hear ya at 12 watts
0048 - Chuck Berry
0050 - Peter Gunn
0052 - a few seconds of I'm a Man then off
0053 - another op saying "we want WEZL"
0054 - Psycho Chicken... sounds like the other op rather than WEZL.

Been quite a while since I tuned into the pirate waves, I picked a good time as this was an awesome show!
