Was tuning down band into 6.8MHz and found XFM with RedHat discussing propagation - some QRN with local storms in the Chicago area but good copy!

0348 Talk and music. Too weak and too much atmospheric noise to understand a lot, signal peaking now 0351  Thanks Red Hat!

Somewhat difficult copy, with TC for 04:24 UTC, then back into music.  About a S4 signal into WCNA.  Still always amazes me how wide the coverage is throughout North America!  Thanks, Redhat!

More on X-FM.  Did a quick check using Remote receivers.  Well heard in Spain!  Kind of so-so in the US (eastern half, at least).  Really nice into Alberta, tonight, though!  73!

Hearing what I think is them in Mangawhai New Zealand at 0450 UTC - 6884.96 kHz on my WinRadio G33DDC SDR.  Poor to fair signal with moderate atmospheric static tonight.
