I heard The Big Q from Minneapolis on Jan.2. It was MUCH weaker than
Tim's report from Michigan. I was using a 40m dipole and switching
between my Icom 706 and a Icom IC-PRC100. Most of the time, I could not
make out any lyrics, or clear announcer speech.
In the past, its been heard in London
There is something there off the Eastern Beverage that sounds oldies
rock, but buried in the noise and the Russian.

Also being heard near Minneapolis "Happy New Year from The Big Q." &
"Cranking out the hits, The Big Q." Weak to fair, played "Yellow River" by
Christie. About 2am CST. Using
own & essentially gone. I wonder if this is being heard in any
more places? 73, George S., MN
