Hearing CW at S6 levels in NY at 1426 UTC.  Figured I'd post first, then fire up the software to try to decode it.  

Stranglers "Golden Brown" at 1430 UTC.

There was some more CW at 1439, I didn't catch all of it, but here's what CWGet decoded:

Amphetamine must be testing this morning. I have heard it on and off for a while but it has always been way down in the noise here and barely able to tell there was a signal.
I was able to copy this CW by ear at 1556 but the SSTV was too far down for MMSSTV to even trigger on.

Here's an audio clip from my station.  It proves that a vertical can work under nasty conditions. Not a great copy but still :-)
