SINPO=22111, but with swings up out of the QRN, and seemingly improving as sun begins to set here. Great to hear!

2347- "Tragedy" by The Bee Gees.
2352- "It's My Life" by The Animals. <<Now SINPO=22222>>
2356- "Downtown" by Petula Clark.
2359- "Solitaire" by The Carpenters.
0003- "Le Sud" by Nino Ferrer. <<Now SINPO=23232>>
0008- OM, "The songs you thought you'd never hear again....This is The Vault."
0008- "All Night Long" by Lionel Richie. <<Now SINPO=33222>>
0012- "The Crunch" by The RAH Band.
0015- OM "Welcome to..." (then ill-timed static and RTTY killed the rest of it).
0016- "Pepper Box" by The Peppers.
0020- OM, "This, is The Vault."
0020- "Last Train to Clarksville" by The Monkees.
<<0022- a utility station, like RTTY, killed signal entirely>>
0024- Signal back with "Robinson Crusoe" by Art Of Noise.
0027- OFF, I believe.

So great to crack The Vault tonight...Thanks for the broadcast across The Pond!
