Station coming in clear with exceptional modulation on 6950.2 SAM. Signal strength is S9+10 with very steady output levels. Audio output is consistently smooth and steady, sounding good. Captain Morgan Shortwave ID. Thanks, Captain. Great studio work.

Tuned in at 0054utc, weak with some static, rock/pop tune fading in and out, R-2000 & dipole.
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
