1603 Just signing on now.
1604 Off, and back on. Tech troubles? Weak here, SIO 222.
No more issues noted after that, generally an SIO 222 to 333. Thanks as always for all the great music!

1608 UTC Hearing some audio at or just above the noise floor here
1610 UTC "Hallelujah"-Ella Fitzgerald
(Signal is barely moving the S-meter but low noise floor other than some static crashes)
1612 UTC "Like the Moon Above You"-Kitty Kallen
1613 UTC "Blue Skies"-Frank Sinatra
(Signal deep in the noise since 1615 UTC...  :( )
1623 UTC Signal back up again with "Stormy Weather"-Connee Boswell
1627 UTC "I'll Be Seeing You"-Billie Holiday
1630 UTC "Memories of You"-Benny Goodman (Rosemary Clooney vocals?)
1633 UTC OM talking now but tough copy...audio from the movie?
1634 UTC "Let's Dance"-Benny Goodman
(Signal is pretty much back in the noise again)
1639 UTC "Tu Es Partout"-Edith Piaf
1643 UTC "Sentimental Journey"-Doris Day
(Mostly a weak carrier here now....the daytime absorption has done it's damage. Also a bit of a heterodyne on the frequency now)

It was great to hear you again Radio Casablanca! I wish I could have heard the whole show but propagation isn't cooperating on this late Sunday morning....much appreciated though and always a pleasure!  :)

Tuned in at 16:37, audio is at threshold levels here in NY.  Can hear some male vocals, signal starting to fade up a bit at 16:39.
