Pigmeat:
It was the same here,Skeezix. However I had two hets  in there,one down about 6948.8.  I couldn't copy anything but bits of music when one would climb over the squeal of the other.

refmo:
S6 here with 'Radar Love', then ID and email at 0406z, then into 'Pretty Woman' by Roy Orbison.
Frequent static crashes to S9.

Zoidberg:
4/22/12, 6950 AM, 0430z: Radio True North fair to good outdoors with Sony ICF-2010 in AM sync.  M "Pop Musik", Boston "More Than A Feeling", Gary Numan "Cars", clear IDs for Radio True North and gmail contact info.  Just a little too much local RFI for clear copy indoors with the Palstar and fugloop.

Via eeevil IRC, rumor sez RTN had to replace a cap that went ka-blooey between broadcasts tonight!

Since 0650z: via east coast web tuner, still SINPO=34243, good signal with minor Spanish language QRM but very crashy QRN.  Aerosmith "Dream On", Madonna "Open Your Heart", Kenny Loggins "Footloose", others.
0716z: Someone likes that Madonna... "Borderline".  Blondie "Call Me", Kate Bush "Running Up That Hill", Simple Minds Don't You (Forget About Me)", Patty Smyth & Scandal "The Warrior"

0750z: Partial RTN ID and "Midnight Express" theme audible on my home receiver with indoor antenna.

ChrisSmolinski:
SDR recording catch. S9+ signal at times around 0340z when I heard a clear ID, but quite a bit of static from t-storms. Midnight at the Oasis at 0342.

Heard again at 0543, I guess after the cap was replaced.
