6925 AM   0435-0452+  May 31
Initially noisy conditions but signal slowly started to rise out of static here in Nebraska.  ~0447 heard a female singer followed by a clear ID @ 0452 as Radio True North into more female vocals.
Just a boy with his radio and some wire.

QSLs always appreciated.

Signal is right with my noise level. I can tell something is there, and can faintly hear music.
