Tuned in at 0126utc, poor/weak/static, hear old disco tune, R8 & dipole. (edit) getting stronger here in NE Illinois, now fair. Hearing a tune by the Who. (2nd edit) now playing Lou Reed "walk on the wild side".

Drake R8, Kenwood R-2000, Panasonic RF-4900, Sony 2010, Realistic DX440, Grundig Satellit 500, 7mhz backyard dipole, Mt Prospect, IL 20miles (32km) NW of downtown Chicago. I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com

Assuming this is Captain Morgan. Started off at 35333 around 0130z, but about at the noise level at 0153z
Audio quality sounded good during early peaks.

0128z - ELO - Evil Woman
0130z - Who - Who Are You, Won't Get Fooled Again.
0140z - Lou Reed - Walk On The Wild Side.
0144z - Four Seasons - Oh What A Night

Great to hear you again Capn'. Blowing the dust of some radios here  ;)
