Just heard something here, strong signal, maybe a Michael Jackson song, but off abruptly seconds after discovering it.

S4 or so over the t-storm crashes, slow song playing right now, signal peaks aren't long enough to ID music.  RTN I'm betting.

144
I'm actually hearing audible music tonight from this one, and some talk between songs.  That's a first here.  Only present on the North D-KAZ.  Conditions seem very good tonight for DX.

145
S4 faint but clear with a soothing blues tune at 0611z.  Timberwolf Radio Shortwave ID & email @ 0616z.

146
I just noticed this one on the waterfall while listening to TCS.  Peaking good at times and then down to just a carrier and back up again.  I'm hearing ads for Chicago businesses along Archer Avenue, weather prediction talk, etc. all indicating a harmonic from W807 "Geo Research Rock Radio" on 1710 kHz.  I've never heard this harmonic before and W807 (on 1710) is generally a weak signal here, so this is a bit of a surprise.  This might offer someone a chance to hear them better vs 1710.
