0301z sign on with Native American singing, about an S5 signal, then off for a moment and back on at 0303z with a much stronger signal, but it was somewhat overmodulated.
0321z ID and off, "broadcasting from Indian Country, we have been testing"

Recorder Catch on 6925USB

Only barely detectable audio in the recording and weak RF above an S2 noise floor in the Strength History.

I may have shot myself in the foot with this; because over-night activity has been low lately, I used the Wellbrook for the over-night for the first time instead of the resonant loop.  Recent hands-on experience here has been showing that under low (local) noise conditions, the RL usually has a lower minimum discernible signal than the shielded loop, and is the better performer for very weak signal capture.  That is not a knock on the Wellbrook because in many other respects it has exceeded my expectations.

My bad, VO American Indian, and I look forward to future shows.
