Weak signal tonight, tough to decode the c-quam stereo, better heard in normal AM tonight from my perspective.  Thanks for the show Redhat!

I've got qrm on the upper side band so trying to listen on lsb.

Not much audio making it thru.

Maybe conditions will get better later.

Can just barely hear a voice here in SoCal at 5:35, but not enough to tell what was being said. Some kind of music now, again too faint to make out.
