I have been listening on and off since 0000 UTC on an SDR in Switzerland. Quite a bit of splatter from Johnny Tobacco on 6275 KHz.

0042 UTC - Still on but and they are "preparing turn off the TX". showing no signs off stopping.
0140 UTC - Still on and pretty good signal into southern Europe with Joe Walsh, "Life's Been Good To Me So Far".
0215 UTC - Public service message for the Lifeboat Service and an anti-drink driving message. Also plug for Offshore Echoes magazine. Johnny Tobacco is gone.
0230 UTC - noted a good signal in Iceland (TF1VHF SDR) and in the northeast US (K3FEF) I hear a Spanish-language station on 6270.0 KHz. Focus is on 6269.75 KHz. They are weak but audible.

Just somebody with a radio, a computer and a pair of headphones...
