2257 UTC Fairly solid, but fluttery carrier here right at the noise floor with some threshold music. Maybe a Euro?
(Also some peskies on USB in the mix)
2304 UTC Still hearing threshold music, but signal too weak to even ID the genre. No BPM noted!
0110 UTC Unid pop tune here at S5 peaks...
0114 UTC "Cumbersome"-Seven Mary Three
0123 UTC "Wishlist"-Pearl Jam

2114 UTC Unid jazz tune with nice saxophone solo (S9 peaks, light noise and fading and possibly the finest USB audio I've ever heard! No midrange harshness common to sideband audio  )
2117 UTC Thanks for the shoutout 77LJS!
2126 UTC Switched from the 2.4 khz filter to the 3.5 khz filter and with a slight turn of the Pass Band Tuning knob  I have audio rivaling the local AM stations...very nice! Signal is down to S8 peaks, but the noise is minimal.
2142 UTC Back to the 3.5 khz filter on this old school NRD-515...sounds the best, with the tradeoff being the noise band noise intruding during the slight fades
2151 UTC Thanks for the shoutouts to all the posters! (Closing down after the next tune..."broadcasting live from Three Peaks Station"
2154 UTC OFF

Great signal, audio, and tasty jazz this cold New England afternoon! Here's my recording from 2120-2154 UTC:
