Pretty much carrier only right now, though I heard a telephone ring @ 0337z.
"This Flight Tonight" Nazareth @ 0345z (Shazam ID)
Talk afterward @ 0346z
---
Sounds like "Don't You Want Somebody to Love" Jefferson Airplane @ 0408z...or at least the singer sounded like Grace Slick.

Carrier drop @ 0410z

Signal bouncing about 20mDb above floor.
Offset=6929.963

Fort Smith AR/RSPdx/W6LVP loop
