Mostly poor copy so far with music.
2155 - back on after a break, better now with "Highway Star" Deep Purple, S3 peaks.  Wow, up to S9 by the end of the song!

 :o Glad to find your board Chris. Been getting into SWL lately and via FB found out there are still Pirates! Imagine. :)

Thanks for the tip on this freq and band. Can't wait to see what is happening later tonight. I had 6.951 at s9+10 but then I have one hell of a big antenna. 40/80 meter super loop, 100+ foot flat top, with matching stub in the middle to phase both sides on 40m band.
