?", music, then "You've checked in to the Heartbreak Hotel...The Crystal Ship...TCS relay network"

2356 UTC Tarzan yell, "Yo Ho Ho and a bottle of rum"...email address..."Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn" clip from Gone With the Wind
0101 UTC UNID Bruce Springsteen tune(hmmm, looks like ByteBORG asked the same question and already got an answer!)
0013 UTC ID, then "Stone Cold"-Rainbow
0018 UTC UNID tune (signal starting to drop a bit and deeper fades)
0023 UTC "Which Way You Going Billy"-Poppy Family
0030 UTC "Deliberately disregarding the authority of the FCC and it's rules", Amen, "We don't want pioneers with good taste, we want pioneers that taste good", "Can't resist looking for the Crystal Ship", email address, then animal fun.

I'm getting very weak music here in USB at 0213 UTC, but the noise level is too high for copy. Maybe a man announcer at 0216 UTC, but not certain.

From 2125-2145 UTC I've been getting a weak carrier on 11428.3ish KHZ but no detectable audio. Not sure if this is it, but I am getting hints of audio since 2145 UTC. Sadly, no copy 
2152 UTC I'm getting music now...maybe "Sweet Child of Mine"-G'N'R?
2158 UTC CW now...maybe CZ beacon again?
2211 UTC The unmistakable sound of the bass riff on "Radar Love"-Golden Earring
2221 UTC CW?
2230 UTC I give up! My ears are bleeding..... 
I assume that the signal is bouncing somewhere else.
Thanks for the test xmsn Channel Z!

Alerted to this by an email...thanks Channel Z! Steady above the noise here in Western MA
Pretty much faded into the noise by 1615 UTC. My ears got hammered by what Token says is PLUTO radar at 1626 UTC
1900 UTC It is now up to 1600 UTC levels with occasional fades into the noise floor

2340 UTC Man announcer, but couldn't copy. Familiar song followed, but I just can't ID it through the noise
0005 UTC SSTV?
0007 UTC Another SSTV, this one stronger
0020 UTC "Train, Train"-(signal has picked up dramatically after those SSTVs! S7 now
0023 UTC "Riders On the Storm"-Doors
0032 UTC SSTV
