the carrier is great but the audio is low for the SSTV.
SSTV's came through much better this time - audio issue appears to have been solved for the SSTV but music is still quite low.
2008 - music is a bit louder now but muffled - the kind of muffled from carrier saturation, not over modulation.
2011 - getting a little better now, distortion is a bit less.
2012 - signed off
