rock music, OM speaking before an audience, brass band music, ID into a program of mostly metal music with periodic ID's and thanks for listening bits, 2202 SSTV (like the others only poorer decode).

S5 - dropped some around 2150, then signal rebounded to S5

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
