0130z | Talking about FCC enforcement on the usual 20m frequency.
0133z | Weather report.

Peaking S8 on the loop (preamp off).

Considerable static crashing and some fades, but the transmission is readily copyable - even better with a little DSP audio cooking.

Catching it here also with a S7 at peaks hearing them talking about Montreal. Lots of fading going on also. Talking about prerecorded sounds and animal noises on the frequency and then faded out at 0131.
