S-9 signal but was having problems competing with static crashes. Copied the last 15 minutes before the signal vanished around 0430 UTC. Receiver was an Icom R75 with tuned random wire antenna. Location was the Cascade Mountains east of Granite Falls, WA.

I'll upload a link to the audio I recorded shortly.

 One of my favorite part of this hobby is getting audio files to see how we are doing. Glad you managed to hear us . Look forward to hearing the recording.

Cheers

Finally got my crappy slow Internet collection to upload the audio without croaking halfway through. Here it is:

Quality gets better about halfway through as I finally stopped spacing out enough to engage the DSP noise blanker and tame the static crashes.

 Like I said I love them audio clips. Sounds like it would have been a pretty fair signal if not for the static . Thanks for uploading that. Soon that nasty static will be a thing of the past ,but unfortunately that means SNOW !! It is just around the corner here EEEEKK
