Via G8JNJ SDR receiver at 1505 UTC tune in time.  Callsign Range Operations heard SIO 333, strong FM deviation but very readable.  Tell-tale 150Hz tone squelch hum.

This is interesting because the US East Coast land mobile (Part 90) business systems 31.120 MHz FM, 31.200 MHz FM, 30.920 MHz FM and numerous others, the 33 MHz fire/rescue dispatch frequencies too are coming in, along with Spanish language chatter on 31.225 MHz and several other frequencies (31.400 MHz, 33.425 MHz) that follow both the 20 kHz and 25 kHz channel spacing band plan.   31.225 MHz also with what sounded like Russian military comms.

31.400 MHz FM with Russian military chatter on it at 1511 UTC.  30-33 MHz is very much alive. 

I checked 11 meters and there's tons of Latin American CB and taxi cab dispatch traffic 25-30 MHz, 11 meters and 10 meters.  Way too much stuff to log right now.

EDIT:

Costa Rican taxi cab dispatch - confirmed Costa Rica comms 32.18 MHz FM and 32.94 MHz FM also coming in - taxi cab radio taxi dispatch Alajuela Costa Rica 32MHz band 32.1800 32.9400 

32.180 MHz FM 77.0 Hz PL
32.180 MHz FM 141.3 Hz PL
32.940 MHz FM 77.0 Hz PL
32.940 MHz FM 141.3 Hz PL
