Synth version of "Joy to The World". On the 900 ft. skyloop via a Kiwi, from Smolinski's radio ranch.

I don't guess they have what it takes to grapple w/the two hour "Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer" Challenge?

Not bad fidelity for sideband, above the three cats in a burlap sack standard quality.

This really is the best time of day to tx, low noise levels, good propagation, it's great.

If only the lazy dx'er's would get out of bed or call in sick, it would be perfect.

Later in the day:  Checking recordings, I first heard something at 1212, but it was faint and unusable.  At about 1219 they popped-up to 20 dB over the noise and 35453.  2800 Hz bandwidth sounded good (as 2800 can) but was perhaps a little wide.  Pleasant.
