0100 Devo "Whip It" SIO 222 with some nice fade ins, and I think an OM humming along with it at times. The song was on a loop for a while.
0105 OM speaking, hearing some numbers like 46, then back into "Whip It"
0106 OM speaking, making out every few words. "Radio station" among them. YL with "general announcement for listeners in Toronto area." Fading in and out. OM speaking. CBC Radio mentioned. Sound of OM groaning or humming. This continues for a while.
0109 Blues Brothers "She Caught The Katy"
0114 Circle Jerks "Parade of the Horribles" nice selection
0115 OM voice then Living Colour "Love Rears Its Ugly Head"
0119 Queen "Dragon Attack"
0123 WHYP ID
0124 The Knack "Baby Talks Dirty"
0127 Beatles "Sexy Sadie"
0130 WHYP ID
0131  The Kinks "Superman (Wish I Could Fly Like)"
0136 OM voice
0137 Right Said Fred "I'm Too Sexy"
0140 ABC "How To Be a Millionaire"
0143 synthpop song with gothy OM vocals, shazam not recognizing it, neither am I
0146 voices, sounds like child or YL, and OM. Something about "period" at 0148, think it's definitely a YL. Dad teaching girl about menstruation skit.
0153 quiet for a moment, then music I think. It's really faded now.
0154 not seeing a signal on the waterfall anymore

Thanks for the show! Signal was overall SIO 222, with occasional nice moments of strong signal that didn't last very long.

Video of reception during "I'm Too Sexy": https://youtu.be/8x6e-NTDStQ

0230 seems to be back on. Hearing loop of OM saying keep away from drugs, into what sounded like the WHYP ID at 0232.
0237 Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers "You Got Lucky" coming in real nice, out of nowhere
0241 Beatles "Good Night"
0245 voices, sound of police siren, then off

Utility / Ground wave propagation at WWV's transmitter site

I didn't actually see any building at 2000 East County Road 58, but I did see the transmitter towers.

For once this station has some modulation, and combined with the absence of RN da Brasília from 6180 you have a signal you can copy. Kinda weak anyway, but I'll take it.

Confidential to Chris Smolinski... I have copied the link to the SSTV I got using the proper tags, but for some reason it's not displaying. Problem was with the hyperlink, not the tags.

Technical errors: Carrier came on at 1556. At 1557, RHC audio came in (confirmed by switching to RCH frequency 11760, which broadcasts at this time). Audio cut out briefly, came back on, then the carrier switched off. At 1559 transmission came back on with RHC audio. It dropped out after a few seconds, came back on again, dropped off again to an open carrier. This happened twice more, then switched to HM01 already in progress (RDFT for the 4th number group).

NOTE: 07 March's number sets are identical to 06 March's. I will tune into later broadcasts to see if this remains true throughout the day. (EDIT: yes, the number groups remained unchanged. I tuned in to 11530 at 1700z, 11635 at 1800z, 16180 at 2100z, and 10345 at 0600z [08 March].)

Carrier up at 1557. 10 seconds of RHC, 20 seconds off, then over three minutes of RHC, including interval and station ID in Spanish at 1600. Suddenly switched to HM01 in the middle of an RDFT transmission at 1601. Number groups are once again the same as those sent on the 6th and 7th.

Carrier up at 1545. 1547 - about two seconds of jazz, presumed RHC audio. Unusually, the number group that was new yesterday, 20541, advanced to 20542 today. Usually new number groups still end with 1 on the second day of transmission.

Still March 28's numbers during the initial broadcast on 11435 at 1600z. Windows OS sound heard (presumably XP, possibly shutdown sound but I'm not a Windows expert so I can't say) at 1626z and audio cut off, but carrier remained. Eventually carrier went off the air, but the 1700z transmission on 11530 did not start until 1738z, at which point the new numbers were transmitted. I had a rough copy and wasn't able to decode the new file until the 1800x transmission on 11635.

An annual broadcast that I just heard about on Facebook HFU thanks to Skeezix. (Sorry, I couldn't remember where it was that I saw that.) Apparently transmitting from either Nauen or Issoudun, it's something to do with people in a particular region in northern Germany who speak a particular dialect of German. SIO 455. Tune in while you have the chance, it's supposed to be on until 1700.

Weak but fairly clean copy received in Denver. I noticed a question mark by this broadcast's entry on the b16 log, but I can attest that it's on.

0153 possible OM speaking, signal well below noise floor now. Trace carrier.

I hope this goes QRT in time for the Radio Mi Amigo test broadcast at 0100.

A new copy for me, and a likely sign of the changing seasons as this is just a bit over an hour after sunrise here. I stayed tuned in mostly til QRT at 1545, with brief diversions to copy XPA2 at 1520 and 1540. Signal was noisy but with S9+20 peaks early, SIO 423, degrading to SIO 222 by 1545. I could tell they were speaking English during the 1530-1545 time frame but could only make out every other word.
