S-on with "testing 1 2 3 can anybody hear me?", Wolverine ID, old big band tune, R-2000 & dipole. At 0034 switched to Drake R8 which has wider bandwidth, has finer freq resolution and feeds a 20 watt amp and big speaker. (edit) seems to be songs with the word "night" in them.
(2nd edit) SSTV/FAX at 0153utc, off at 0155utc. Good program, thanks.
