Tuned into 6930 USB at 1:00utc
Very faint at first but could hear the blues - good bass coming through.
I loose him under S4.5 into the noise at times, peaks at S6.
1:07 - 1:09 utc Multiple BOR ID's - Nice when the signal is low.
1:09 uts Blue grass signal slightly improving w/ some peaks to S7
1:11 utc  Shout out to HFU members , over the music.
1:14  S Crow louder now S7 - S8
1:17 utc signal back down into the noise at S 4.5
1:21  BOR ID @ S8 again.
1:22 utc  "I'll Fly Away"  S units all over the place  S4.5 - S7.
1:35 utc  I noticed the band was quiet except for 6910-6950 -
went QRM hunting and found the culprit - my wife's little ultrasonic humidifier.
Sorry babe - You will have to put a pot on to boil.....DXing is more important!
Now S7 and sounding very good...just in time for Outro and a bit of chat about a leaking heating oil tank..
Always good to hear your shows BOR - Thanks
