About S8 into the Mojave Desert.  Nice audio.  I saw the carrier pop up and down before the transmission really started.

averaging +20 to +25dB SNR above noise floor of -64dB in hampton bays NY on a N/E-S/W horizontal dipole 10 feet off ground (not the best antenna system here, its temporary for now)
sounding good although AM modulation seems to be a bit over driven.
getting some slight LSB interference though, zero-beating on USB fixes this.

Listening in USB because some huge solid PULSE thing is wiping the AM out here.  About S-3 after fading up.
