Tuned in at 2320 locally and on Normal IL sdr, weak signal on both just above the noise, hear pop/rock tunes from 1970 thru present,
Drake R8, Kenwood R-2000, Panasonic RF-4900, Sony 2010, Realistic DX440, Grundig Satellit 500, 7mhz backyard dipole, Mt Prospect, IL 20miles (32km) NW of downtown Chicago. I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com

2330 Can hear the announcer but not well enough to copy.  Approx S5-S6 here.
2332  Shazam says "The Lovecats" by The Cure.  Not sure how it can it through the noise.
2334  More comments from the announcer.
2335  "In Between Days"  The Cure
2338  "Close To Me"  The Cure
2340  Announcer w some sound effects?  Barely audible above the noise level here.
2342  "Why Can't I be You"  The Cure
