Barely hear audio, poor sig, possible old radio programs with ads from that era, have to tune in with usb due to utility qrm on lower side, R2000 & dipole.

I have been using online receivers because my 7mhz dipole came down in a storm and after my stroke on 3 June 2024 I can no longer get up on a ladder to fix it. Also too much neighborhood noise.

Unable to copy on AM or either sideband due to UTE QRM on either side [too close to passband]
Carrier is still visible...
Perhaps at night, they need to go back down to 3395 if QRM keeps up...
I was able to listen to CBS announcements earlier today, old commercials like Tooth POWDER & Gunsmoke..!

I heard them about an hour ago running old commercials and music. If it wasn't for lightning strikes to my west, this would have been the best I've ever heard them.

I decided to save my hearing for quieter times.

Poor signal here, just bits getting through the high noise level.

Old Time Radio, 6770 AM, 0146, 9/9/14.  Big band music into story.

Hard to understand, so I can't tell what the story is about.

However, this is much better than the usual, tiny carrier I see with no audio.
