Here also at 2125 UTC with an unid speech by OM. Is this FDR? Don't recognize the speech.... Got it tuned in better now.....FDR! I believe it might have been this speech on this link...?
http://sageamericanhistory.net/worldwar2/docs/FDRSep39.htm
Next speech is possibly FDR making a case for unemployment insurance and minimum wage? Is this his original acceptance speech?
I wish that damned wideband ute noise would qrt! Making things difficult to copy.....
I hear nothing more after 2142 ish UTC
