02:01 UTC - Good readable with fading ... and here I have been waiting on 4030 kHz with no signal. Even the live stream is monitoring 4030 kHz with no signal;
02:18 UTC - Big fade out period, just went to unreadable, almost no carrier.

It’s clearly in AM here in michigan — “everybody Dance@ and ‘do you wanna dance’. …

3+5444 and getting stronger.

Unlike 4030 (SINPO=44333), can't copy any trace of BSR here on 6960.

0159 "Wildfire" IS, bowling ball pin strike sfx before ID "4030 AM from somewhere in the Northeast" and another sfx over intro to "Everybody dance" - Chic then a program of "dance" theme songs including Ramones version of "Do you want to dance", Elton John, Archie Bell and the Drells, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

S7 with good audio so far.

Enough carrier tonight to get a lock on Sync AM direct but no audio coming through at this noise level. Nothing on 4030 at all.

S-9 plus signal on the western Great Plains. "Save The Last Dance For Me". A ton of band noise. Must be a lot of wind out that way tonight, as usual.
