Super-tough copy out here, as it's mixing right at the floor level.

But I did here the guitar swelling on the Floyd song at 2040 UTC, then the signal kicked up loud enough to hear the OM talking at 2047 UTC, and I got a few strains of "Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road" at about 2055 UTC.

Currently getting an interference whine on that frequency in LSB, so not hearing anything now.

2109 UTC: Whine just went away, and I can hear a country song at the floor.

2114 UTC: Heard a bit more of the OM on the mic.

2122 UTC: Hearing another country-style song. The signal's being heard more consistently here now. It's still at floor level, but it's there.

2128 UTC: Off?
