Great to hear you again Foxy op! Thanks for the entertainment and I hope all is well! Here is my recording of the show minus the first few seconds and the SSTV at the end. I retuned during the earlier part of the show, which you can hear in the recording...

0208 "A star in the Ghetto" S7

SINPO=24222, a bit noisy tonight.
210- "Star in The Ghetto" by Stupid Human or Average White Band and Ben E. King (as Shazam can't make up it's AI "mind!)
214- Foxy on the mic, talking about playing something better suited for sideband. Talks about next song selection, with some seriously old roots.
215- Sounds like harpsichord instrumental music.
217- Foxy back and says "That didn't sound too good did it? Well at least we're learning what music sounds good on SSB." Next going to play something liked by Eric Clapton.
218- "One World" by John Martyn.
Great to hear you again Foxy!

Via a recording. As Foxy noted, a very noisy night. 12 to 15 dB above the background noise (at minus 116 dB), so usable and not. The SSTV image in Scottie 1 was interesting--YONIQ/MMSSTV never saw it in AM mode. Since my listening was via a recording, I could play and I got a tolerable image in USB. The LSB side was not as robust and it started twice. Tightening the bandwidth to 2500 Hz was very helpful.
25342 at best and not audible at its worst.
