Have OTR at 0000z at S9. Some kind of stand-up routine, but not sure who the comedian is.

Old Time Radio, 6769.9 AM, 0001, 11.23.14.  Weak signal with radio play.  Can't really tell what kind.

Just signed online. Heard them tonight and last night too. Very weak, barely at noise floor, hear bits of audio. R8 & dipole.

Assuming this is OTR. About S8/S7 noise here at 0335z. Sounds like an old comedy routine, then a couple of commercials, one being Colgate tooth powder.

This was the best I've ever heard them. A solid signal on an old Grundig Yacht Boy 400 with just the whip. I first heard them around 21:00 with a "Wild Bill Hickok" episode with his loyal sidekick, Andy Devine. Then into music and comedy. When checked in at roughly 1:00 UTC. they were running W.C. Fields and Charley McCarthy. The last thing I heard was an Abbot and Costello routine, at roughly 1:30-1:40 utc.

The signal was still solid when I turned off the radio to go out, just after Abbot and Costello. I hadn't heard that particular bit since I was about 11. Dinner could wait.
