17640
1629Z 35433 S7 Game continues & a decently strong signal.
1645Z 25432 S5 I think someone just scored, but signal has considerably weakened.
1703Z Signal is gone

17830
1629Z 25422 S3 in & out of the noise. // 17640
1703Z Signal is gone

15400, 17780
1703Z The schedule says there should be something here now, but not hearing anything.  Considering I'm off the side of their beam, no surprise there's nothing.
