Just barely audible music being received directly here near Seattle. Also getting an S9+ signal and decent audio amid considerable noise heard via the Traverse City, Michigan, SDR ...

0253 UTC: "Start Me Up" by The Rolling Stones.
0256 UTC: "Rock and Roll" by The Velvet Underground.
0300 UTC: "I'm Waiting for the Man" by The Velvet Underground & Nico.
0305 UTC: "Odds and Ends" by Bob Dylan & The Band, followed by "Goin' to Acapulco" by Bob Dylan & The Band.
0312 UTC: "Don't Eat the Yellow Snow" by Frank Zappa.
0314 UTC: Nanook Rubs It" by Frank Zappa. The audio's really sinking into the noise more both here and via the SDR.

Thanks for the classic rock tonight! Nice to hear it a little out here on the West Coast.

Songs are identified with Shazam if needed. I usually use KiwiSDR receivers. Reception from my QTH is using a Hermes Lite 2 with a 40 meter band Inverted V at 40 feet.
