0215z Hearing the Doctor in NH - he's peaking about S7 but is battling two other stations that are about the same strength.  One is playing music (spanish?) and there is also an automated weather announcement station in there.  The result is that I'm only getting about 25% of what he's saying.

Info from #pirateradio: The other stations are Celestial radio from NYC and the NJ traffic info system (thanks).

No copy at the home QTH tonight, but weakish copy from remotes in Florida and Quebec.  Undercover Radio 20th anniversary show.  Always great to hear some activity on 1710 khz.  Thanks Doc!

He was fairly strong at first out of the gate. But soon faded into the noise with occasional peaks just above :-\ Thanks for the attempt Dr. The band is also kind of short right now.
