Good signal with OK audio heard directly here near Seattle with some background noise and a bit of SSB distortion ...

0242 UTC: "We're Here for a Good Time (Not a Long Time)" by Trooper.
0243 UTC: Usual host with "This is Band Aid Radio ... enjoy!" Added he still has some bugs to work out with the station. That was followed by "I Got Stoned and I Missed It" by Dr. Hook.

Good reception at 02:44, although there's digital hash just above 6950 kHz, but narrowing the USB filters makes it all OK.  Playing I Got Stoned and I Missed It by Dr. Hook Rock
