0107 - S7 Carrier but audio seems low.  Listening in LSB to avoid het from weak carrier on 6951 that has been there all afternoon.
"Don't Fear the Reaper" @ 0108

Whoa! Keep those lightning bolts away from the Flamethrower AC! Hopefully 6965 will bring less QRM! :)

FYI: 6968.5 is sometimes used by MARS. In fact I hear MARS there right now, at 2252z.
