0213 UTC OM with ID "WWWW...whiskey whiskey worldwide radio....(mention of "stereo")
0216 UTC Signal got whacked with the OTHR  :(
0218 UTC Music at level with the radar now

0215 fair signal that got mch better by 0217 with interference on lower side on Raleigh NC SDR, Roxanne by Police, announcement "AM Stereo," then Steve Miller
Big into SWDX late 70s through early 90s, then forgot about it and when I returned via SDRs it wasn't at all what I remembered, but I'll deal with it. Grumble, grumble. All SDRs acknowledged, nothing is from my own radio.
