The Crystal Ship – Pirate Radio report

December 1, 2020November 8, 2014 by Rick Blythe VE3CNU

I recently wrote ‘The Crystal Ship’ for a QSL upon receiving their broadcast:

Hello TCS!
I hear you loud and clear tonight west of Toronto. 6950 kHz on or about 0000 UTC Monday Oct. 27

Registered S6 on my CR-1a receiver. Enjoyed the 60s psychedelic tunes.

Would love a QSL card !

And… got a reply with QSL today!

Rick,

Thanks for the report, and thanks for listening…. eh?

An eQSL is attached.
