2144 - music
2147 - "Space Oddity"

2138 UTC Mostly a weak carrier with brief music fade up
2141 UTC Op talking but no luck on the copy
2142 UTC "Space Oddity"-David Bowie/"Rocket Man"-Elton John Mashup
(2145 UTC Signal peaks hitting S6 followed by deep fades to the noise floor)
2149 UTC OM with spoken word....."difficult to find a jury"
(Signal is mostly buried in the high noise level....some brief fadeups, but no joy on the copy)

21:55 UTC - Not even a carrier in my part of the world;
21:58 UTC - Appears to have gone off air (was listening via the HUF KiwiSDR).

As a side note, I also noticed that the KiwiSDR now has 2 VFOs. Nice new feature.
