Thanks, Vinylman. I just made another voice ID and backed off on the mic gain a bit on the mixer. Keep those videos coming... :D Some of these old blues I'm playing right now were recorded a long time ago and don't sound that great to begin with...not the best material for doing modulation checks  ::)

Hillbilly music

Lots of noise in these parts. Gotta go to bed.
Is that a CB radio sounding guy interfering or is that part of the show? Interesting. Goodnight.

SDR recording catch. Poor copy here, just above the noise level starting around 0543z. Slightly better by around 0700z.
Off at 0803z.
