2252 UTC FDR speech "Only thing we have to fear is fear itself"
2255 UTC OM narrating documentary style about FDR and his Fireside chat
2256 UTC FDR again talking about the banks
(Signal is a solid S8 here with some S9+ peaks! Best I've ever heard this yet!)
Signal had drifted down slowly and is 6954.9 at 2257 UTC
2300 UTC OM narrator again
2316 UTC OFF abruptly  :(
Excellent reception here and I'm enjoying this very much!  :)
2322 UTC Carrier back up and at 2324 DSB signal! Then the LSB cut out and signal is clear now on USB (FDR speech about Pearl Harbor bombing)
Booming in here at S9 +10!
Off at 2347 UTC
Thanks for the historical show whoever!

Any chance of an email address for this?  :)
