12/18/11, 6964.6 AM, 2045z-2105z, Channel Z with familiar rock songs, checking for DX results.
2045z-2100z: Via an east coast tuner, Nirvana "Smells Like Teen Spirit", Channel Z op with ID, mention of DX test, David Bowie "Rebel Rebel".
Only fair via this CT tuner, noisy (sounded more like RFI than QRN), just good enough to copy familiar songs.  SINPO=32332

2100z: Switched to midwest tuner, much better.  Alice Cooper "Elected", Channel Z ID with "Rip the knobs off" slogan, Ch Z op chatter about testing today, intro to Sex Pistols "Anarchy In The UK", "...73's everybody until next time."
SINPO=43444 (some MW images breaking through but not too bad)

Unfortunately, nary a squeak here at home, not even a carrier.  >:(
