Perhaps a repeat of the speech from ~40 minutes ago? Seems like there might be some subtle differences.
TX was ~50 Hertz low until 2254 or so, when a sudden jump put it closer to 6920. SINPO 55555 on an SDR in New England.
2258 - Presentation of a gift from the Girl Scouts to Mrs. Roosevelt.
2300 - President Roosevelt comes to the podium and will light the tree. FDR uses Scrooge's "coming around" as an opening to discuss Social Security payments.
2307 - After FDR's speech, a chorus sings "Oh Come Let Us Adore Him".
2308 - "Silent Night"
2311 - "Noël Noël"
2313 - "Glory to the Newborn King"
2318 - Benediction by Rev. "John Dubya Dixon".
2330 - CBS journo recapping the events with "Hail to the Chief" played by a military band in the background.

2302 FDR with Christmas message

Strong signal at 2258.... speech.
(none of these sound like FDR to me, but many different politicians want to send their Christmas message---
"lighting of the national Christmas tree" mentioned...)
'President Roosevelt, he's going to press the button-- and then deliver his Christmas message to the nation'--
Ok ok Now into Roosevelt at 2301.... VERY good audio and signal!
"thank God for the interlude of Christmas" ~ FDR
FDR talking about the beginning of Social Security payouts--- (or "socialism" as the GQP always describes it! oh excuse me)

FDR quoting from Jesus 'sermon on the mount' 2305--
Into Christmas carols at 2306
Mostly S-9 to S-10 on the big-loop SDR in Maryland
Thanks for the repeat of this show (since I missed the others) !
