Good signal with some fading into Northern KY. Hex beam barely off the ground. Too old to identify most of the music, but enjoying it anyway! Cheers!

Active traffic on 8992 - coded sequences every 15 minutes. Known frequency, of course, but still enjoyable to listen to!

additional - 30 character codes  and  one 34 character code during hour. also each started with FV and then the third character went backward by one letter -j, i, h ... don't know if this is a pattern or just tonight
