Got RTN at my place on the west coast of Canada S5 to S7. I'm able to make out some of the tunes when the signal peaks but getting lost in the static at times. Almost sunset here...maybe it'll improve once the sun sets.

No luck here tonight, just a carrier on 6955.  Tried a few web tuners too, no go.

Heard Radio True North with another great program on the evening of the 11th ( 12th UTC) from 04:36 hours, with ID's and again 80's theme music.
Signal was not as massive as the last transmission but still a solid s4 to s5 into Daysland.Alberta

Receiver a reply from the operator (radiotruenorth@gmail.com) and he was hoping to come on again with this transmission, and to included some of music requests from the early eighties.
(possibility)

This to the operator who provides a very entertaining program...THANK YOU !!!
