TCS, 6876 AM, 0003, 3.23.16.  "One toke over the line," 70's jukebox on TCS announcement, "Ballroom Blitz," "Walk this way" on now.

Averaging S8, although down to S7 and over S9 at times.  Very listenable the whole time.

Catching The Crystal Ship sailing in here at a S8-9 with some fading and excellent audio as always doing their 70's Jukebox Show. Same details as fellow members. Off at 0137. Thanks JP and Relayer! ;D

0038 - Bad Bad Leroy Brown. First single I ever owned. Second one was "Disco Duck."

That's the best it's been for me. 232 or so. Still getting the hang of these codes.

0044 - Your Mama Don't Dance and Your Daddy Don't Rock n Roll

Since 0046 too noisy to hear, but never mind. Thanks for the show JP!

Tuned in to hear the start of "Kodachrome" by Paul Simon.  Nice AM audio

Always great to hear The Crystal Ship!  Keep up the good work!  

"There are four ways of doing things on my ship.  The right way, the wrong way, the Navy way and my way".  Line from The Caine Mutiny.

The Crystal Ship ID.  It's time we stop arresting adults who smoke marijuana responsibly.  NORML PSA with Willie Nelson.  TCS ID The Crystal Ship Shortwave Relay Network.  Start of "Take It Easy" by The Eagles.  Data QRM on the lower side band and now (0054 UTC) signal is starting to dip down a bit into the noise.  Data link QRM at 0054 obliterating signal for a few seconds, then signal came back a bit right at 0055.  Signal strength increasing even more at 0057 and/or stronger modulation.  Loud audio now!  Minor pescadore QRM for a few on the upper side of the AM signal - then it looks like they moved a few kHz up in frequency to 6885 kHz LSB (they were probably getting QRMed themselves!).

0059 UTC - Some fading/QSB (getting more noticeable now)
0100 UTC - 70s Jukebox/TCS Shortwave Relay Network ID into "Dust In The Wind" by Kansas
0104 UTC - Ride captain ride!  Upon your mystery shippp!  QSB and noise on the signal but still holding it at S7-S8 on peaks
0108 UTC - Looking Glass - Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)
0110 UTC - TCS Shortwave Relay Network (echo FX on this ID)
0124 UTC - Heart - Magic Man
0126 UTC - Fleetwood Mac - Go Your Own Way
0128 UTC - Data/ALE signal on frequency, audio dropped considerably 0128-0129ish, difficult copy now
0131 UTC - Guitar/wah pedal punches through the noise!
0133 UTC - TCS RN ID, email ID with computer-generated YL ID
0133 UTC - Clip from the movie Jaws back into music
0134 UTC - "We want the airwaves!"
0137 UTC - Dragnet clip "booked under Section 601" "this has developed into a very bad habit"
0137 UTC - QRT / Off air - carrier dropped off right with audio, no ID on sign off
