Weak signal in and out of the noise here at 1252 UTC with big band/swing tune. Occasional fade-in to S5, with nice clear audio. Hey OTR, how about an email or something...you're acquiring quite a fan base here on the HFU! :)

Thanks jFarley! The article, for those interested, is here: http://www.radiohobbyist.org/blog/?p=1495

At 2100 they switched from music into the old time radio programming. Slightly better than S8 right now.

Listened to this from 2045-2115 UTC with EZ listening tunes until 2100, followed by, I believe, Eve Arden comedy (Our Miss Brooks?) with fadey signal peaking at S7 here...occasionally excellent copy.
