Nice signal here with Pink Floyd mx playing & restarting a few times. ID by man at 0105.

Op said a few min ago that he'll be QSLing reports through HFU & that he doesn't have an e-mail address or maildrop, but he'll be working on the details to get QSLs out to people. Also apologized for tech problems & said that the equipment hasn't been on the air in a long time.

Please QSL

Nice signal from this station. They said "Ultimate Blizzard Radio broadcasting from a secret bunker watching the snow fall". Solid S-3 but low noise with the furnace turned down so it doesn't kick on.
They are able to broadcast because the FCC tracking vans are off the roads.
