I have it with a poor/fair signal.  A bit noisy playing Christmas music.  Thanks for the show.
My guess at frequency is 6948.36 KHz.

I've got it on 6948.4,but it's weak and way down in the noise on the Westminster SDR w/ 58 ft. TFD. Signal improving a bit, but it's still struggling to make it over the noise. Here it comes, standard choral Christmas music.

Switched to Chris's Kiwi w/ the 120 ft. TFD, much better signal, above the noise and in the clear. Even a heathen like me is enjoying it. Gone about 21:54.
