At the noise threshhold - very poor to unusable

0035 - hearing banjo or guitar strumming, or old blues
0037 - sounding like a speech, background crowd noise
0043 - definitely a MLK speech - unmistakable voice and cadence
0049 - speech ended
0049 - CW now - "VVV DE..." poss. an ID in association with the MLK Broadcast ?
0052 - CW ceased
0052 - S/Off -QRT ? or fade to black ?

Thanks for the ID, jFarley.

S8 - QRM from peskies

2328 - 2331 - Heard this one too. Definitely not a Standard Taps, although it may
                     have been a different military "call" on the bugle / trumpet.

                     This was a Taps Variation. Thanks Gino.

"demonstrates a deliberate disregard for the Commission's authority and its rules"

They sure like that phrase, they use it everywhere.

(AS IF 'demonstrating a deliberate disregard for the commission's authority'
is grounds for anything!)


I also like it, so I'm using it too!  "AMEN!"   

Yes Mr. Poet, I heard that last night, peppered into various places in your broadcast.
