Good reception into Masset at 01:15 tune-in.  Heard SSTV signal a few minutes later, but we were having supper.  Gone when I rechecked at 01:30.
Only 6970U was on at the same time, but much weaker than Wolverine Radio.

Blaster of a signal tonight into Masset, BC.  I'm measuring 6925.275 in AM mode.  Sign off at 03:36 after a boat anchor SSTV image.  Excellent reception throughout.  Thanks for the fun!

I had a listen to the audio.  This is all Ukrainian Radio, with many IDs (in Ukrainian, including the IS, but interestingly, sometimes followed by ?Mayak IS once, then back to Ukr Radio IS), but the programming is all in Russian, especially regarding the Russian Volunteer Corps incursion into Belgorod.  Thanks for the interesting link!   Towards the end, (ie, 1:27) though, there *might* be some Ukrainian programming, but it's starting to fade quite badly by then.
