0157 UTC Fairly solid carrier but loud peskies killing the USB. In LSB I can hear music right at the noise floor
0201 UTC Peskies QRT'd and I'm hearing it in AM now. Possibly a Beatles song?, but modulation seems low with moderate selective fading
0202 UTC Different song now that I don't recognize. Signal peaking at S7 above an S5 noise level.
0205 UTC Unid song
0208 UTC Sounds like horn fanfare...intro to song?
(I'm striking out on IDing the songs so far....the high noise level isn't helping tonight)
0221 UTC Peskies back on the USB  >:(
0224 UTC Signal just won't come up out of the noise
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
0321 UTC Tuned back over here and I have a fair signal in the clear now with "I Still Love Your"-Bee Gees
0325 UTC Unid song...signal faded down to the noise floor, then back up again
(0326 UTC OTH Radar now....damn!)
0328 UTC Unid easy listening song-OM singer
0333 UTC OM speaking, then OFF

Thank you for the Monday evening broadcast RPM 45! Here's a link to my recording of the last 13 minutes:
