Strong signal tonight with good copy in Nebraska.
"I Got the World on a String," It's a Wonderful World." and "The Whole World Is Singing My Song."
As others have mentioned audio has a "watery" quality.  
Strong storm activity tonight affecting reception, still good show tonight.

Drake R8 was sitting on 6940 when I came into room at 0035utc and heard old Vaudville tune "sittin' on top of the world" followed by "I got the world on a string" then woman singing "wonderful world" then Wolverine Radio ID, poor/weak and fluttery as if there was a solar flare, I have never heard wolverine this bad before, it's usually strong and clear. R8 & dipole.

weak signal here. This is what I got in NW Florida. The Firework image did not come through at all. Still exciting though being my second ever pirate and first ever SSTV.

So, I listened for QSL information and never heard any. I realize today that I was to put my logging on here. As it says to the left, I am a newbie.

Sign on was a repeated Test 1 2 3, that was musical in nature.

The artists that I could ID:

Supremes 0055
Cream 0100
Ten Years After 0106
Earth Wind and Fire 0113
Steely Dan? 0122
Tears For Fears 0127
Dire Straights 0132
Dr John and BB King 0134

A slow scan transmission at 0139, and then WDDR started up.

Thanks for the broadcast!
