You're correct. Audio is not as smooth as 1st hearing them on my end. Believe they also shifted frequency as well. If not my Flex is about to explode.
0132 are back to 6960
0134 oooook, their transmitter is drifting for sure.

Via a recording.  Once the frequency settled down:  45454.  There was about a 300 KHz swing above and below 6960 from 0102 until 0106.
