Heard you on 6955 USB. Fading in out at 5PM CST in Mosinee, Wisconsin.  SDR with diplole up 22 ft. Signal coming in stronger as of 5:45 PM CST. Thank you for the alternative rock you play DJ Dickweed I love it! Its not the same old Top 40 crap over and over again. Your Conversation with Sycko on the hotline came in loud and clear at 6:30 pm cst awesome chat about Al Fansome. By 8 PM CST Signal is booming into central Wisconsin! Dynamite Playlist! I know you said on air that you don't QSL because its time consuming maybe consider eQSL
