Only fair reception here in SW Ohio, maybe due to thunderstorms?  I did catch Only Time at 0:19, ID at 0:23, Eddie Money "Shakin" at 0:28 followed by commentary.  I could hear other songs but I did not know them which doesn't usually happen with VSky. 

SINPO 43222

Tecsun PL-680, telescoping antenna.  Noise increased when I attached the magic wand antenna.

No QSL for me but good to hear V Sky again.

Listening to a signal slowly rising from barely audible since 2354.  At 0027 signal came up enough to identify 'Somebody That I Used to Know' - Ables, an ID, then faded, back down to just audible where it it has been since about 0030.
