Listening to a loud and mostly clear signal via the Westminster, MD, SDR, as there's no signal from CQ out west here.

2208 UTC: Two SSTV transmissions. Caught part of the second image, which was Hillary Clinton dressed as witch.
2210 UTC: Then an OM announcer saying "Happy birthday if this is your birthday" or something like that ...
Into snippets of a few songs, including "Helter Skelter" by The Beatles. Sounds like he's having audio problems with the music.
2213 UTC: Snippet of "Black Betty" again, then "Whiskey In the Jar" by Thin Lizzy.
2216 UTC: "Long, Long, Long" by The Beatles. Now listening via the D.C.-area SDR of NA5B.
2219 UTC: Start of "I'm a Believer" by The Monkees, a few moments of silence, then OM announcer talking over creepy about Skunkhole Radio broadcasting as Pumpkinhead Radio on Halloween coming up.
2220 UTC: "Revolution 1" by The Beatles.
2223 UTC: "Deadlines and Commitments" by The Killers.
2228 UTC: "Savoy Truffle" by The Beatles.
2231 UTC: OM with quick ID, then "Don't You Love Me Anymore" by Joe Cocker.
2234 UTC: "Big Time" by Peter Gabriel.
2238 UTC: Off.

Tuned in at 2225utc, weak bur clear, hear pop/rock music,
Drake R8, Kenwood R-2000, Panasonic RF-4900, Sony 2010, Realistic DX440, Grundig Satellit 500, 7mhz backyard dipole, Mt Prospect, IL 20miles (32km) NW of downtown Chicago. 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
