Thank you for listening to the inagural broadcast from The Cosmonaut System. This is one hour taken from the AFVN on Christmas 1970 in Vietnam, recorded quartertrack at 1 7/8IPS.

More from this tape in coming days as orbital conditions allow.

Via a recording, I tuned in at 2301 to a faint carrier and no audio, which continued to sign-off at 2357.  Occasionally, some very faint, but unusable audio.
