4065: Very good signal. SIO 444.
6925: Carrier, bits of audio, but that may be the peskies on the LSB.

Now a Channel Z Christmas show at 2138z.

And now even 4065 is fading out at 2215z.

2130 UTC - Hearing 4065 in WNY, signal S5 -S7 audio is weak. Nothing on 6925.
2150 UTC - Signal on 4065 is S7, audio is fair.

Signal strength at 10 over 9 today with some R&B music now hearing James Brown with Santa Claus go straight to the ghetto. Poorer signal on 4065 than 6925!
Christmas Rap by Kurtis Blow at 21:50UTC
Hearing a old man giving info and possibly ID but the signal has dropped in the last few minutes and not able to discern the information!! Sounds like another station or peskies!!
Hearing Kate Bush December will be magic again at 22:22UTC signal has improve heard info about a QSL card but again hard to discern due to fading!!
