02:00 Haven't a signal for the past few minutes, so don't know if they're still on or jI ust can't pick up the signal.

Thanks for ID Joe!

Getting a pretty fair signal into Alberta tonight, despite some local QRM.

Fair here. Just tuned in during "We Want the Airwaves" and then the two SSTV images with the kids in the corner & off.
Thanks for the show!

Recorder catch:

6925 USB SIO 232-333

Decent signal overall with fading conditions lowering signal level close to noise floor at times, but audible throughout.  Same details as others.
