SDR recording catch. Tough copy, SIO 311, lots of QRM from the peskies, and since they were on 6924.2, the peskies end up in the passband, even in USB mode.

0121 sign on with the musical bits Captain Morgan usually plays when he signs on
0122 Rolling Stones "Waiting On A Friend"
0129 CCR "Have You Ever Seen the Rain?"
0132 Rolling Stones "Beast Of Burden"
0134 Steve Miller "Rock'n Me"
0136 Steve Miller "Abracadabra"
0141 Steve Miller "Jet Airliner"
0141 Off mid song?
