Mode: AM
Time: 1215 UTC (start time)  1240 UTC (log start time and tune-in time)
Date: 15-SEPT-2017


1240 UTC - tune in time - checked both NJ SDRs, VA SDRs and NY SDRs, have faint carrier on the NJ SDRs but nothing elsewhere
1242 UTC - hearing "Leader of The Pack" with significant signal increase...now SIO 444 with S9 to S9+10db signal on NJ remote SDR
1243 UTC - nice audio on the waterfall (10-11 kHz wide) with strong modulation especially on peaks
1247 UTC - minor fade down to S7...still good copy though
1248 UTC - Four Seasons - Walk Like A Man
1249 UTC - fading continuing, noisy but good copy on peaks
1256 UTC - signal back up again, S9 to S9+10...looking like a broadcast station on the waterfall
1257 UTC - The Chiffons - He's So Fine
1300 UTC - great sounding surf rock, now sitting at a solid 10db over S9
1307 UTC - Sam Cooke - Chain Gang
1308 UTC - brought passband up from 10.0 kHz to 11.8 kHz still sounding really good with armchair copy, very little noise
1312 UTC - The Platters - Great Pretender
1319 UTC - Stevie Wonder - Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I'm Yours
