the right to say they should know...” 2239 Signal came up
enough to tell Art Bell was talking - fair amount of QSB
although generally poor. Also heard: 6925 DSB 1419, 1/2.

to hear a “Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell” ID at one point.

Following his usual New Year’s Eve format of playing music
while getting more drunk as the evening goes on with talk
& sending SSTV sends of a themed picture of someone who
logged on HFU & e.g. “Radio Star Radio.” Went on a good
deal more drunkenly after I pulled the plug @0300 according

Then Vitamin C by Ege Bamyasi. @0347 a mention he was

ging back college memories!) R.E.M.’s Radio Song & ID
@0355. Elton John’s Have Mercy on the Criminal @ToH then
another SSTV @0407:
WDDR2.jpg
These were tribute SSTVs not to be confused with IDs
which were all audio. Then Illegal Smile by John Prine
@0410 continuing with DJ chatter & another WDDR ID at
:13 tune out. 44+444 w/VERY occasional ‘digital raspy’
QRM way under the signal & a whistle at 4 kHz so as long
as the bandwidth was less than that it was fine. Nice
sounding music, but his microphone was a bit tinny.
I always forget I can record more than one station so
long as they aren’t too far away from each other in
frequency! --Zichi MI
