SDR recording catch. A very faint carrier noted perhaps as early as 1150z.
Carrier for sure by 1200z, but not even S1.
Some audio by 1205.
Started to improve at 1210z.
S7 at 1212z.
S9 by 1213z.

Off at 1226z, thanks for the show PRB!

I was also able to hear this for a while before work this AM with around an S5 signal.

Thanks, PRB, and Merry Christmas!
