Channel Z Radio 6925 KHz AM 1429+ UTC (11/23)
« on: November 23, 2012, 1441 UTC »
Channel Z noted with a real nice carrier at 1429 UTC. Various music, including B-52's "Channel Z" and then an ID by the announcer at 1440 UTC saying he'd play punk music. S9 at first but starting to take some fades.

Announcer again at 1443 UTC stating that a lot of punk artists died early and that he wanted to do this show as a tribute to them.

Still peaking at S9 here with some fades. "People Who Died" by Jim Carroll at 1527 UTC and then into the B-52's "Channel Z" again.

Off at 1533 UTC.

B52's "Channel Z" @ 1531 UTC, carrier suddenly gone at 1532 UTC, S4 while there.  Looks like I may have just caught the end.
