Checking the SDR recording, I *think* I see a carrier starting at 1037z, but it is very faint and difficult to tell exactly when it appeared.
By 1115z the carrier is more obvious, but no audio.
Audio started to be heard at 1122z. Less than 30 seconds later, the signal was S9, then a few seconds later it was S9+10. It then dropped down to S9 about a minute later.
S8 at around 1126z.
Back to S9 at 1131z, then down to the S7 to S8 range where it stayed until sign off.

Thanks for the morning test!
