S5 into the southeastern US tonight on my AirSpy Discovery+ and 80m OFC dipole with no co-channel interference, but a fair amount of hiss.
Had to listen in USB to make out the announcement.  SIO 242

0226 UTC Recorded message with OM repeating "This is radio station WQFG689, owned and operated by Hudson County, NJ.  We are currently experiencing technical difficulties, and continue to work on correcting the issue.  Please check back with 1710 AM soon.  Thank you for your patience."
