S-on at 0011utc with what sounded like a Dylan spoof, morse code, heavy metal tune, more morse, sed "calling CQ", C&W tune "join me on the airwaves", song "CQ serenade", now a doo-wop tune about morse code, where did he find these tunes? Excellent program, Kenwood R-2000 7mhz dipole 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

Good signal here on the SDR recording, about S8. I also copied the birthday greetings to Sam via SSTV.
