Tuned in at 2325utc on Barrington Hills IL sdr, weak S5 to S7 signal, sounds like special radio broadcast from early 1940's about FDR and WW2. Is this WFDR? Announcer talking about FDR arriving in congress to make a speech followed by applause. FDR giving speech "I have asked congress to assemble for this special occasion." Signal increasing to S9. At 2342 announcer slowly said "W, F, D, R, good night" then off air. (edit) We need another FDR along with solid Democratic majorities in house and senate as well as state governors and legislatures.
