Noted here in the Boston burbs playing electric guitar Christmas music at 1229z. Not very strong here, just above the noise, S1-S2 signal strength.

Synth version of "Joy to The World". On the 900 ft. skyloop via a Kiwi, from Smolinski's radio ranch.

I don't guess they have what it takes to grapple w/the two hour "Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer" Challenge?

Not bad fidelity for sideband, above the three cats in a burlap sack standard quality.

This really is the best time of day to tx, low noise levels, good propagation, it's great.

If only the lazy dx'er's would get out of bed or call in sick, it would be perfect.
