Making it to central lower Michigan as well decent signal,
Those 'spooky sound effects' were often 'waterfall' images
of ghosts, pumpkins or space aliens ... if I could figure out how to post an image
here I would .....  can someone explain what to put between the  tags?

at 2115 I'm giving it a 35443+ sinpo ....

73 from Mid Michigan
DXing *either* from:
MI -- South Central Lower Michigan with a 25 m randomwire and a LOT of local noise!
or
MI2 -- the tip of Michigan's Thumb with a 100 metre longwire and much quieter conditions.  Radios can be either an SPR-4 or IC-R71A or SDRplay

QSLs appreciated! radioguy73@gmail.com
