Assuming this is RFW with "We Like To Party" by Vengaboys at 0329. Nice signal but audio a little hot.

Not too bad- about an S7 in south jersey. But it fades in and out a lot.

Can hear them in northern Canada but not strong enough to listen to for long. Hopefully the band will pick up.

Lots of garbage on the lower sideband by the looks of the waterfall in SDR Console.
Products extend down  to 6923 and up to 6929, ~6Khz total width.

I'd paste a screen shot, but haven't quite figured out how to do it.

Um, no. This is clearly not the REAL RFW. Cool to have inspired fans though. Don't forget radio comrades:
This will be available for your purchase in just a few days. Price?? I don't know yet. Probably between $20-$30 with shipping. Just think of how envious all your neighbor comrades and ham radio buddies will be when you sport a sexy RFW t-shirt!
E-mail me at dickweeddj@gmail.com if you are interested in getting one. I will send you the link when the press is hot.

I can barely hear it here. I can tell its music. I could ID a song if I knew it.  Some kind of fast beat now at 0405.
Sometimes I hear a voice along with the music like its interference.

Interference that sounded like a tone. It is stronger than your transmission here. Another some seconds later.

Uncensored moon landing comms at 0432 UTC (pretty funny) on UN-REAL RFW.

REAL RFW T-shirt looks awesome. Hopefully I can stuff my bloated beer gut into one of these.
