Up to an S-5 with deep fades on USB, gone on AM.  Thanks TCS.

0:30 Touch and go
0:32 Dom P- something?? (don't turn around)
0:46 Don't you want me baby

1:45 Peaking S-7

Static crashes do not seem to bother the Elecraft KX3 or the 590 compared to a total wipe out with some of my other radios.

I really suck at naming songs.
