It's 1040 UTC and not even a carrier here. Still on the first cup of coffee and outside it's shaping up to be a real Spring day with sunshine and blue skies. While waiting for the band to open up here, Skipmuck is going to nuke yesterdays leftover biscuits and maybe apply a good coating of peanut butter 8)
There is an UNID carrier on 6955.8 KHZ, but no audio ???
1105 UTC and all is still quiet here...OC on 6955.8 is gone, but OTR on 6770 is S3 with an unidentified program and organ bridge music...nothing to make me want to pick up my feet and boogie. Now that I think about it, they don't make organ bridges like they used to ;D

1145 UTC and no joy in the Valley of Poor Brook USA :(
1200+ UTC and it appears that someone else is getting all the signal...time to head out to the backyard and get some work done...thanks BBR! Maybe next time the prop will be more conducive.... :)

Thanks for checkin in, Skipper!  Band sucked last nite so it remains to be seen if the MUF will bump up after sunrise today.  :)  Just got an email from New Brunswick and a SINPO of 55555 up there!  Will be on till around 1215 or so.

Good Morning BBR!  I work third shift, so "breakfast" here is home-made beef stroganoff that's been cooking in the crock pot all night.  

Pretty nice signal this morning, S9 mostly, with some fading.  Multiple Boombox Radio IDs at 1050z. Some kind of remix of Royals by Lorde at 1101z.

Thanks, and enjoy your breakfast!

SDR recording catch.
A very weak carrier first noticed at 1100z
Some faint audio around 1107z.
The signal jumped up at 1112z to S9.
