0045 Hearing some music buried in the approaching storm noise
0052 OM talk and possibly some YL talk also
0058 I think a USB just came on 6925.0
0105 AM carrier on 6924.9 still there, USB on 6925.0 playing dance
0131 AM peaked quickly and sharply to S9 for a few seconds.  I heard ment of "Chicago" by a male op whose style and voice
         sounded like DJ Formaldehyde.  Tent I am calling this Metro Radio International.
0144 The AM is off, USB (XLR8) still going
