From a recording.

As Chris, a carrier appeared at 0842 and was gone for good at 0923.  The signal that I saw was not as good as Chris'; I never heard "Cold as Ice."

It was disappointing because the initial signal was 50 db above the background noise, but quickly deteriorated to only 15 or 20 dB above.  15 or 20 dB above the noise doesn't work for AM here.
