Fairly good signal sounds like a Sci Fi show at 01:45UTC signal strength at 10 over 9! Signal drop at 01:52UTC can hear it but more noise now! Signal is muffle at the time unable to understand at 01:55UTC!

Has been a tough signal here in SE GA (faint, can't make out most words, man speaking with some echo).

But now I am hearing Ozzy sing Mr. Crowley starting about 02:10-ish

SDR recording catch. Generally an SIO 444 from 0140 UTC sign on. Some of the audio was muffled, however, as others noted, mostly the speech.

Just finished listening to the entire program, very different, thanks for the broadcast!

 :D I did hear this transmission, just barely above the noise , and could hear echo on the modulation. But, copy was really 1222
Radio is dying. We need to give it shelter
