SIO 444 at 1534, conditions seem good this morning.
1842 Still a great signal, SIO 444, peaks to 555.  Enjoying the 70s flashback!

thats alright, i enjoy broadcasting despite anything else, it helps my work day go smoother and quicker but it would also be great if "Yeah Man" did some broadcasts during the day, i do enjoy listening to his broadcasts and live announcements.
yesterdays storms were pretty incredible, i hope all my SW friends and op's who were within the path of it, are ok.

1730z S2-S5 in New Hampshire,  but low noise levels means pretty good copy
1734z Earth, Wind and Fire - Shining Star
1737z David Bowie - Rebel Rebel
1741z Gladys Knight - I'll Take You There
1744z The Pipkins - Gimme Dat Ding
1747z Elton John - signal dropped down to far to ID
1751z The Ides of March - Vehicle
1754z These Eyes - The Guess Who
1757z Jimmy Cliff - I Can See Clearly Now

So far no Shazam-ing required, though I did have to Google "Gimme Dat Ding" to see who did the tune.

1800z Signal has dropped way down into the noise, too weak to copy now.  Thanks for the show...

I've had a weak carrier since 2100 UTC with a few brief threshold fadeups with music. Propagation isn't being kind.....

sorry about that Skip but im not sure of the daytime signal is skipping over you or you are in a dead-spot.

hi skips, hi relay, props for dropping in.
s6 here near dc, with s4 noise floor. bandwidth placed near to a local qrm source. significant fading cycles at this writing.
local qrm prevents discerning much intelligible audio, unfortunately.
thank you.
sdr with horizontal loop antenna, 20 feet up, 250 feet all around. wellbroke loop for amdx and tropdx, very very lucky reception.
