WHRI INDY 500 15720am 1530 UTC 29 MAY 2016

[Ct Yankee]

Signal greatly varying...sometimes major noise and fading, other times near perfect.  No ID on station yet but earlier posts this past week mentioned WHRI's race coverage.  Though, WHRI's website does not show it as a frequency.  Short-wave.info does not attribute the frequency to a station.  Based on MDK2"s earlier post and that WHRI is listed as part of the Radio Network, I will go with WHRI. (The only other shortwave broadcaster on the Indy Radio Network is AFN)

1530z Pre-race talk by 2 OM's (No play by play, this is not my sport  )
1537z OM with historic review of past 500 races "most exclusive club in racing"
1542z GEICO commercial into Computer OM "This the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Radio Network"
1558z Archbishop with pre-race prayer
1604z Darius Rucker with National Anthem...sounds great.
1730z WHR ID into beef jerky commercial

Listening in western Virginia, reception indoors on my Tecsun PL-660 is nonexistent, decent signal outside however. The weather's not the best so I'm currently listening on a Globaltuners Receiver in Indiana, decent signal on that with race coverage.
