Tuned in at 0118utc, poor/weak, hear woman singing, have it on 6976.13 and slowly rising in freq, R8 & 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. williamhassig@yahoo.com

Hear an occasional voice pop out of the static but wouldn't have known it was there with any certainty.

Started out quite strong but has faded to just above the noise @ 0129 with music.
0137 - signal up to S7, but static crashes increasing too.  "You and Me" by Disclosure
0140 - "Royals" by Lorde

Hearing bits of music popping out of the noise here at a S6 at 0153. Carrier showing up on the waterfall but that is about it. Bummer :-\
Signal picking up a bit to a S7 and music sounding a little better at 0202! Thanks BBR! :)
