S8 in eastern Pennsylvania.  Some very deep fades.

The synchronous detection holds on my Drake R8.  Nice, clear signal.


Thanks for the broadcast on a nasty night,

Female signer at 0010Z, sounds like the tx went off :-[

Not super strong in GA tonight, very high noise level here tonight.

SIO 444 into Madison tonight.  I tuned in to a lovely Marseillaise interval signal, then the whole song.  ID and email address for reception reports, then into Halloweeny music.  I switched off briefly, and when I tuned back in at 0013, this was gone.  Rats, it was entertaining. 

Thanks for the show!  I thought your IS meant you were Radio France on an odd freq for a second there.  :P
