5/29, 0319, 7475am. 0319 UTC-Josiah preaching. S7 with the KK6PR KiwiSDR. (Bandura-BC)

5/30, 0314-0522 7475am. 0314 UTC-Josiah preaching 0522 UTC-OFF. S9+20 with the KFS Omni KiwiSDR. S7 direct. (Note: That was the longest broadcast I have ever heard from him! Must be a special thing for Memorial Day (Josiah is very Anti-War)? He came on live after the music earlier then went into another program after the live talk. Just played the music again (twice in one broadcast!), same talk again (sounds live but it’s the same as earlier). Maybe this will be sign off? Much stronger and stable S7-S8 reception at the end. I left the SDR recording going and checked back occasionally (no way I would listen to the whole thing!).) (Bandura-BC)

5/31, 0324-0413, 7475am. 0324 UTC-Josiah preaching. 0404 UTC-Days of Hard Life by Lace. 0406 UTC-Sign off message. 0413 UTC-OFF. S9+20 with the KFS Omni KiwiSDR. S7 direct. (Bandura-BC)

6/5, 0315, 7475/AM. In progress at tune-in. Usual op, bagging on "the half-man, half-god hybrid man-god", patriotism, and etc. 0000+A wrap up at 0410 and rerunning "Days of Hard Life" by Lace (which was "Josiah" and his ex-wife - according to correspondence I received from him), then some live closing remarks S/off 0419 saying he's be back "Same bat time, same bat channel, I love you, good night folks" and off. Something not noted bf, the carrier stayed on a cupla minutes beyond the close. (Usually it sounds like he's saying good night and flat pulling the plug). Good S9 thru most of bx on SW8 and long wire (Barton-AZ)

(the Zip goes to a Pearson, CA, and the Zip area covers a huge area of Inyo County). So the address others have reported is new. All copied thru a bit of summer static with Drake SW1 and log wire.
