S9+ in Utah.

I'm loving this 80's music. Thanks, stranger!

I had massive fade at 03:48. Still there, but buried in the noise. :(

SDR catch, 0238z sign on with a very nice S8 signal, with just a little static underneath.

Heard again out here in the woods. Signal was about S3 with considerable frequent static crashes.   Quite listenable though until sign off at about 0407.
