S9 signal into St. Louis, MO area, SIO=454. Just a little fading and occasional distant lightning static , but overall one of the better signals I have heard in this frequency range in quite a while. Great audio.
Started listening on my Icom IC-706MKIIG and Cross Country Wireless mag loop 36" off the ground.
Just switched to the Sony ICF-2010 and much better signal - almost local broadcast quality.

0133z - Rap music
0138z - Another rap song
0141z - Announcer says he's going to play one more
0156z - Brownie Radio ID. Happy 4th! (Signal now SIO = 555. Can't get much better than that).
