S7 fading down to S3 at 0128z. 6950.5 am. Nice clear audio. 35333. Just heard Andy Walker talking about a 1966 tune. Saw "Pirate Radio" on cable last night and he sounds like he could've been on that ship.

Just tuned into JFK speaking the famous phrase "ask not....". Good signal at 1939z.
Audio seems a bit muffled, but perhaps that's the old speech recordings.

Weak under a crashy noise level, but clear enough to hear the Beatles "Little Help From My Friends" at 0217z. "....24 hours a day" in there after.
