We slid up to 6970 and restarted to avoid QRMing the other station on 6960.

Apologies for the weak signal tonight. The raccoons tampered with our antenna again.
Here's a link to the program you can listen to or download from audio.com

eQSL appreciated! lucasnerite@gmail.com
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.
