Strong signal, noise not too bad, on 4185 into SW Idaho, S7-9, SNR 35-40 dB. 5185 signal however is practically nonexistent. Thanks for the multiple frequencies! 0104 UTC 1 Nov 2022.

About 0100 another frequency, 6865 USB, popped up. Looks like Mix Radio is relaying like they did last night, and like last night the signal is big here. Thanks for the relay!

Songs are identified with Shazam if needed. I usually use KiwiSDR receivers. Reception from my QTH is using an SDRPlay RSP1A with a 40 meter band Inverted V at 40 feet.

S9+30 into Michigan right now @ 0130 UTC, just the caught end of what sounded like an old KMFDM tune.  Thanks for the Halloween show RH!

I'm listening direct at home in California while I work late and hand out candy to the kiddies. 4185 and 5185 not making it at all at my place at 0200 UTC but 6865 is very much above the noise for me. It looks like the big California SDRs have all three frequencies.

Cheers,
CDS

HAPPY HALLOWEEN ALL!!

X-FM is very weak here, "somewhere under the stars....and rain" on Mount Hood in Oregon.  Thank you Red Hat for the broadcast.  Great to hear you.  I'm sure Larry is doing another Pirate Radio video report "somewhere under the stars" in MN.
