Peaking S4 with good audio. Quite nice sound quality for SSB.

Some intermittent QRM in background for a few seconds?

Thanks for the broadcast.

Here also just after the end of the PRB show....I had to switch over to USB to catch the Comrades anthem at 0206 UTC, into DJ Dickweed and Stavin with a better late than never "Halloween Spooktacular". (In the Pirate Zone, it's always Halloween :o), into some tunes that I need Shazam to ID....I guess I was born too early :D.
