0232utc on 6925usb, heard heavy metal version of US national anthem but by somebody other that Jimi Hendrix. I still had radio on but I had turned off the computer last night, sorry for late post.

I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com
