Unid 6960 AM 2119 utc 14 May 2020
« on: May 14, 2020, 2119 UTC »
Very good reception to start, then deep fade.

Great music, thanks for the program.  Much appropriated after a day of planting  as spring rolled into New England today (despite a morning frost)

2119 "Saturday Night" Whigfield
2121 Music at noise level now
2124 Still just barely hearing music
2127 Music at very good reception, fades and noise
2131 Deep fade toward end of "I'd Love to Change the World" Ten Years After
2132 "Miss You" The Rolling Stones - good reception
2137 Reception slipping again, I believe it is music by Electric Light Orchestra
2140 Fair reception, very good at peaks "We Gotta Get Out of This Place" The Animals
2144 Off?

Tuned in at 2142 via Burke, Virginia, SDR just in time to hear the final chorus of "We've Gotta Get Out of this Place" by The Animals and then off. The signal was fair against a moderately noisy background.
