Fair to sometimes a bit better into Victoria, BC.  Noticed on the waterfall while listening to 6960 in AM.  Not sure who it is.  Could it be the Covid-19 station?

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

Hearing poor to nearly fair bluesy music as of 0222 UTC here near Seattle. As of 0224 UTC, the signal's peaking at a solidly fair level every few moments; I'm listening in USB.
