0000 Got 'em here in Northeast Nebraska with the Testing 1,2,3 can anybody hear me/Wolverine Radio ID, then into old time music.

Extremely heavy QRN, but busting through S9, excellent audio.

Awesome playlist! The songs Roundabout, then Fooled Around....It reminds me of times when I was little, driving around with my Dad when 1110 AM KFAB Omaha actually played music on the radio.

0047 Turn your love around-George Benson, now reaching a solid S9+30.
0100 SSTV/OTA??

Numerous 10 meter very weak/readable Amateur Radio between 28.115-28.520 USB. Eastern Azores, South America. None of them were registering any S units on the signal strength meter.

Oddly, I did not hear anything stateside throughout the day, even down into 11 meters.

Nothing out of the ordinary, pirates are quiet tonight, so I taken a spin over to NMF. Solid S9+ here in Northeast Nebraska.

I was trying for KVM 70, nothing, but WWVH over on 10mhz (Completely covering WWV) and 15mhz is blasting in S20+. Kinda odd....Usually if WWVH is in KVM 70 is as well.

I have never heard it here, sure its entirely possible if there is some short skip. I'm located 357 air miles from Ft. Collins, Colorado to my location, it's most likely I am sitting inside the skip zone.

SSTV all over 27.7000 this morning, most of the stations doubling over each other. The last image may be my first Trans-Atlantic, or polar path SSTV image I have received.

Not to mention, 11/10 is hot here in Nebraska this morning! Got UK CB 27.781 very active. 10 meters reaching over the pond into UK, et., al.
