Arcade Fire "Reflektor" at 2129 UTC. Carrier is maybe an S5 but I'm really having a hard time pulling the audio out. It seems kind of low.

S3 here with a high noise floor makes understanding the words challenging.

Still kind of early out here, but I have an S5 carrier and audio from time to time.  Deep rolling fades.

2137 back to music

Whatever you're doing it seems like it's working, DJF.

S3 here, but low audio.  Improving as we get nearer to sunset.  Can hear OM and YL talking, but can't understand much of the conversation.
Peaking up to S5 @ 2137 and hearing email @ 2137z and mention of Maryland, Joe Farley, etc....
