S5 to S6, sounding good in Kentucky with continuous music since tune-in @ 2230.
2232 - "Great Society" by Franklin
2240 - Big fade down to S1 to S2, barely audible most of the time now.
2250  - no longer hearing anything here.

It was good while it lasted, thanks for the tunes.

About 1 S unit over the noise here in the lab.  Good to hear you guys, its been a while!

0006z X...L...R...8 ID  Occasional utility QRM.  The signal is getting stronger as we go.
0010z Same ID followed by a very deep fade.  Struggling to make a recovery.  An ambient reggae-esk piece now with lots of zingers and tones.
