Poor reception....but great weather!  All time high temperature record for February in Connecticut - 74 degrees.

2157z Catching bits and pieces of reception with OM talking heard "Radio Olah"
2209z Reception a little better, hearing music but can't ID
2216z Radio Olah ID, I believe OM spelled it out.

 8)  I do hear a carrier, and at 2200 sounds like an Elvis song, but signal has lots of fading here. :-X
   " she got... ?? "
Did hear an Olah at 2203. Guess that was an ID
Some swishing bad VFOs and a weak buzzer as interference
Heard a DJ say "you heard".. young man's voice. Signal still up only slightly above noise.
