0024 UTC "Walk Like An Egyptian"-Bangles (Signal is just above the static crashes here)
0031 UTC TCS ID, into "Land of Confusion"-Genesis
(Finally got it tuned in nicely using USB to avoid the crud on 6870!)

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

I have a trace carrier at 6876.16 kHz, but that's it. Hope you play later, say after 0200 UTC when I have a better chance of copying you! It's been a while since I last heard TCS.

Good S7-S9 signal in pretty heavy QRN. "C'mon Eileen" Reminds me of watching "Friday Night Videos" & hoping I could hear some pirates. Now "Hungry Like the Wolf," which brings back the same memories

6876.2, 0110, 5.29.18.  After parking a receiver on 6976 for quite a while, TCS started to come in at 0110 and quickly built to S7 - 8, 0119 ID.

Hrd here in northern MI on 6876.16 in AM mode with tons of static (no storms nearby however) and deep fades from 0125 onwards.  TCS ID and mention of 1985 at 0132.  Signal seems to be increasing in strength with less fading at 0140.

0130:  Barely audible in western Chicago suburbs.
0132: ID???
0133: Salt in My Tears????  Barely above the noise.

Bummer I couldn't pull it in better.
