0943 Faint music just over noise floor, OM speaking but cannot decipher.  Probably Saturday night request show, hopefully reception improves.
1000 Time pips into news, reception improving
1032 Reception now fair, "Wing" Patti Smith - pesky on a couple of times cutting song off
1037 "Crisis Situation" Tahuna Breaks, reception now good.  Sunrise here 15 minutes ago.
1041 "Rose Tattoo" Dropkick Murphys
1048 "If Ned Kelly Was King" Midnight Oil
1052 "Enter Sandman" Metallica, reception now very good
1105 "Ride My See-Saw" The Moody Blues
1110 "That's Amore" Unid cover, reception slipping
1116 Music just above noise floor now

Heard that too, around 07:00UTC. I was wondering who that was. Signal peaked to S7 on me, and pissed-off the dudes on 40M HAM 7248LSB.
“I am often asked how radio works. Well, you see, wire telegraphy
is like a very long cat. You yank his tail in New York and he
meows in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? Now, radio is
exactly the same, except that there is no cat.”
-Attributed to Albert Einstein, but I ripped it from the latest Splatter .PDF March 2025 issue.
