Tuned in at about 2350 hearing The Ghost just above the noise floor with a S6-7. Switched to USB to try to understand a little better. Freq has shifted to 6873.5 at that time. Heard lots of talk into creepy horror type music and kind of faded out into the abysss. Wish it would have come in better. :-\
