Right at the noise level here also....bits and pieces
0108 UTC modulation picking up and blasting through the noise at times.
SINPO 44434 sounds good now. S7 noise with an S8 - S9 signal.
Heard the Hank Williams.... Jack Pine and North Woods radio.
At 0124 UTC it's back into heavy QRN again.
Another station on s9 plus 20.....really good signal.
Frat party songs in a mix??

0111Z 35433 S7 ID. Mentioned HFU. They're on the edge of nowhere, near copper country.

Signal is a little better than the static crashes, but static is putting up a good & annoying fight.

7/29/12, 6925, 0143z: Not certain what I'm hearing.  Sounded like shout-out *from* CYOT *to* Northwoods Radio, but I might be mistaken.  Shout-outs to various folks logging on HFU and FRN.  Announcements buried in music mix, can't tell whether one or more stations on simultaneously.
0148z: Cee-Lo "F**k You" song mixed in with another rock song I can't ID, plus a clear Northwoods Radio voice and CW IDs.
0157z: "Black Is Black" Los Bravos, bits of various songs, Kinks "You Really Got Me", Beatles "Hippy Hippy Shake" Roy Orbison "Pretty Woman", still not sure which station I'm hearing, seems to be AM mode.

Seems to be inadvertent QRM between the two stations.
