Tuned in at 2250 utc on Barrington Hills IL sdr with fair but weak S7 to S9 signal, wideband signal, using IQ option on sdr, hear what sounds like broadway show tunes, at 2300 clobbered by very wideband noise centered on 6840 khz, at 2307 moved up to 6880 usb to escape the big wide noise.

Drake R8, Kenwood R-2000, Panasonic RF-4900, Sony 2010, Realistic DX440, Grundig Satellit 500, 7mhz backyard dipole, Mt Prospect, IL 20miles (32km) NW of downtown Chicago. I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com

SINPO=34343, with some flutter in the audio here.

2203- "Calling Elvis" by Dire Straits.
2304- YL synth voice IDs Mix Radio International, coming from the United States of America. Another YL "The finest sound and the finest mix....You're listening to Mix Radio International on shortwave."
2305- "Policy Of Truth" by Depeche Mode.

I'm here Yank, and ready to sprinkle wisdom (and/or whatever else is called for)!
