Via NA5B SDR near Washington, D.C. ...
2232 UTC: "Time to Pretend" by MGMT fading up.

Just able to hear music on very brief fade ups in Orlando. Strong QRN but definitely there at times on fade ups. QRN on this frequency at S8.
2305 As grayline has been approaching, signal getting better, basically at floor now, QRN still pretty strong.
2325 Caught "This is the Vault" ID into ZZ Top "Gimme All Your Lovin" Past 10 minutes there has been a lot of SSB crosstalk.
2329 Another "This is the Vault" ID Not sure of the song but it's a female

Catching it also via the K3fef with Santana playing at 2302. Signal is a S6-7 with fades and audio sounding good. Thanks Vault for the show, new one for the online SDR log book! :)
