T/in right b4 they went off 1632.  :(
But back now, and you're right, if same stn. signal is a little weaker.  I had it about 6950.3, but now drifted back to 6950.  Now and then can hear bells, but running right at the noise floor level about S-5.  No voice heard yet.

I've been hearing this around 6950 also, off and on much of the late morning. Strong signal, but very unstable transmitter.

Yep, I did notice it was drifting quite a lot.
