Just noticed a weak carrier here fading in. No audio yet.
Checking an SDR in OH - it is HHR signing on.
1317 Starting to get audio locally now.
1327 Now a respectable S7.

About S4 here in the Mojave Desert, I can make out some audio, but not all.  WOuld be fine if the Chinese OTHRs were not on the same freq sometimes at S5.

(edit)  1344 appears to have shifted to USB maybe?  Either that or some other station came up on 6925.4 USB after HHR went off.
