6850.2 AM 

Fair signal here in NE Ohio, but audio is a bit hard to pull out of the noise.
Just hearing a bit of talking right now.
Talking about last nights Democratic debate  -- fair amount of QSB on signal.

Mostly in the noise here at 6850.2ish, but just faded up nicely at 0028 UTC with commentary by OM :)
0040 UTC Signal has gotten better and better! S9 here the last 10 minutes with some minor "flutter" fading

Had them clear with good Brit audio, just not extremely strong signal. Talk was about financial matters. Thanks for the somewhat different kind of show.

Inaudible in Southern New York, even after plugging in my long wire antenna to the PL-660, the best I got was a barely audible carrier.
