Dang, you keep beating me to the posting. I can hear it stronger on 6950 then I could  on 6925 but not sure if it's a relay from a different location or just that conditions have improved.
BTW there's pescadores on 6930 having a very lively discussion. THEY are killer strong into northern Canada tonite.

Yep, hear the pescadores on LSB. Too bad I don't speak Spanish.
