I can hear some type of music being played, but it's in the noise here in Florida. My antenna actually points more so East and West, so I thought I would catch this better. I haven't been a big listener of Pirate stations for long, but I have noticed a shift to the 4 mhz region lately as opposed to the typical 6.925, 6.930, and 6.950? The signal is rising here now. If the station continues it will get better for sure. Currently playing a country tune im not familiar with.

2209 - music coming up in and out of the static floor.  Stays up long enough to hear the end of a song and an ID at 2111 then into "Yellow Rose of Texas," and continues to fade in and out.

S3 at bottom, S5 at top.  Inaudible to very listenable.
