2129 UTC Bells tolling, followed by ship comms
2131 UTC "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald"-Gordon Lightfoot
(Signal is just above the noise floor at peaks....best here using USB due to peskie QRM on LSB)
Hearing this program each year still gives me the chills....a great tribute!

Heard from 2126 UTC on the SDR recording, co-channel with Yeah Man Radio until he went QRT. Then reception became an SIO 333 to 444. Thanks as always for the show!
