hear bits of audio under noise in am mode, detect weak carrier in ssb mode, very poor to non existent in NE Illinois.

I hear them about S-5 with storm static. Always great to hear an old friend!

About S8, but audio seems weak here in the choppy noise.  Playing 'I Ran' by A Flock of Seagulls @ 0256z

heard weak carrier on portable while dog walking. Visible carrier on SDR at home but not much audio...pretty noisy tonight.

 at 6:15z Recheck on Satellit 750 using built in whip & RTN is audible pretty steady. On the SDR with a 30 meter horizontal L I can only get the carrier with almost no audio. What the hell, man?

SDR catch, 0230 sign on with just a carrier. Audio heard starting around 0300, but still quite weak. improving further starting around 0325.
