WTF Radio Worldwide 6950 USB 2203 UTC 10 DEC 2023
« on: December 10, 2023, 2203 UTC »
2203: sign on, IS-type music, with ominous sound to parts of it
33333, some pesky QRM, I think; static crashes prevalent - had thunderstorms earlier
2205: "Journey of the Sorcerer" - Eagles
2206: OM with disguised voice, can't make it out, some laughing -> "Take it Easy" - Eagles
2212: "Nightengale" - Eagles
2216: "Peaceful Easy Feeling" - Eagles
2221: ID jingle

Thank you for the broadcast!
