Robin Hood Radio 6930 USB 0326 UTC 14 Feb 2021
« on: February 14, 2021, 0331 UTC »
Making radio adjustments @ 0229 and deciding what music to play.
0330 - "At&T" Pavement, S6
0339 - "Aunt's Invasion"
0341 - "Blue Hawaiian" Pavement
0350 - talking about compression methodology.  Keep it as you have it with light/moderate compression.  Allows the average audio to stay above the noise without allowing clipping (and still allowing some dynamics in the music).
0357 - Shoutout [thanks!].  Compression seems a bit heavy for me now, but that's how most of the other pirate stations run it.  Sounds good though, and thanks for the tunes.
Thanks for the great show!

Heard from 0326 UTC on the SDR recording, mostly an SIO 433, good signal but some QRM from the various wideband UTEs that plague 43 meters at night.
