Weak signal amid noise via the Fair Hill, Maryland, SDR ...

2232 UTC: Sounded like the end of the "Blue Danube" waltz.
2233 UTC: "La Grange" by ZZ Top.
2236 UTC: "Beer Drinkers & Hell Raisers" by ZZ Top.
2239 UTC: "Tush" by ZZ Top. At the signal's peaks, it's nearly at a good level now.
2242 UTC: "Salt Lick" by ZZ Top.
2245 UTC: "Miller's Farm" by ZZ Top. Still notable noise, but this signal's settled in between a fair and good level.
2247 UTC: "(Somebody Else Been) Shaking Your Tree" by ZZ Top.
2250 UTC: OM voice said something brief, then SSTV transmission. Too much noise for my app to decode it.
2252 UTC: OM voice said something again real quick, then "Francine" by ZZ Top.
2255 UTC: OM voice said something like "I think I'll try that picture again later," then "Heard It On the X" by ZZ Top.
2258 UTC: OM on the mic again, then SSTV transmission, then "It's Only Love" by ZZ Top. The signal's losing the battle against the noise again.
2304 UTC: Basing this ID on the decent SSTV scans other posters here got.
2305 UTC: OM on the mic again, but way down in the noise before "Arrested for Driving While Blind" by ZZ Top.

Thanks for the afternoon music!
