Very weak here on Long Island. It appears that the anchor is weighing down the signal.
Unless noted otherwise, all reports are direct from my location on Long Island NY.

Can barely hear it here in NYC.
All reports given are direct from my station in NYC.
Main toys are a Flex SDR, Icom 756 Pro II and other assorted odds & ends. They may be older, but work very well for me.
100 ft random wire (all my city lot allows)

Was scanning on my recently acquired Qodosen, and this station leaped out of the speaker here near Seattle. SINPO 35433, with some deep fades at times.

0221 UTC: "Sunshine Needs Me" by Walrus.
0222 UTC: OM on mic gave email address, then "Coloured Rain/Mother's Dead Face in Memoriam/Coloured Rain (Reprise)" by Walrus.
0228 UTC: "Tomorrow Never Comes" by Walrus.
0232 UTC: "Never Gonna Let My Body Touch the Ground" by Walrus.
0235 UTC: OM on mic with ID and email announcement, then HFU shout-outs ... "thank you all, and have a good night!"
0236 UTC: Off.

Thanks for the barrel full of Walrus songs!
