6950 AM 0044+ JUN 29
Can barely hear music and op's voice but signal is very faint and deep in the noise floor.  Best heard, as it is, in LSB.
By 0120 signal improved enough to hear op wish listeners a good week and a happy 4th.  A song by Sinatra(?) followed and then lost signal or s/off around 0125.
