Fair signal in New Hampshire, S6 which is about even with the noise tonight.

2241z RFW ID, copy kinda tough but getting most of it.
2249z ID again, still hangin' in there...
2258z Lamenting poor propagation, shout-outs to all the HFU posters, and off

Good to hear you again DJDW (even if you're not slamming in here tonight)

From 2247 UTC, trying to listen on the Maryland kiwiSDR-
music fighting with noise, about S-3 to S-4.  Local reception probably about same but covered by local het.

2258- Dickweed &co DJ chat that I can't really make out but recognize Comrade Dickweed's voice.

Probably my worst ever reception of RFW which was usually S-7 to S-9 at my QTH, but thanks for trying, comrades!
These prop conditions suck for 43 meters...
