Nice to hear WMPR again. S9+ but the audio seems a bit low maybe?

Weak s7 signal here at this time but did manage to catch id @ 2256.

I had peskies on each sideband.  No chance to hear anything here after 2300.

WMPR, 6925 AM, 2259 - 2340, 1/18/14.  Initially rather poor with mostly carrier with some breakthrough of dance music.  Suddenly S8 at 2335 in time for the end of a song, ID, 3 SSTV transmissions with an ID and announcement between, off 2340
