S7 signal here,  many repeated IDs at sign on - *thank you* very much for that, while conditions are good now, it really does help when they are marginal.

0003 Tuned in to music which I can't ID
0006 another song perhaps
0007 OM talk, poss ID?
0008 back to music; plaintive OM ballad
0018 Nice ID finally during a signal peak; it's a wild ride out here in the flatlands

Only getting this about an S4 on S3 floor in some storm noise, but thanks!

heard very weakly in NE Ohio.  6938 AM with just not enough signal to catch the ID or tunes.

Just got logged into the board tonight.  Hope to add more station loggings in the weeks to come.
