Hearing faintly via USB SIO 212 in New Smyrna Beach Florida,  via the tree slung random wire and SDR. I can hear music but unable to ID the melody this far, will keep trying.

Thanks Captain Ron!

Woo thx for the shout, Cap'n! ;-)

Can barely hear him in the noise in Indiana on whip antenna. Not fading up enough to grab any details.
