Killer signal at 2334 UTC with S9 +10 here and Jimmy Stewart giving frequency, email address, problems with the cell phone, into "Theme From Dragnet" at 2337 UTC.
2340 UTC JS with ID, TC as 2341 UTC..."Perry Como just broke", TC as 2342 UTC, mention of Saturday JUNE 5th(sounded like it to me!)...talking about soccer, into Perry Como song at 2344 UTC. Took Perry Como off...talk of sending out some QSL cards and got a positive response.
2349 UTC "Huckleberry Duck"-Raymond Scott
0006 UTC JS says "4th of July was 2 days ago...so today is JUNE 5th, or JUNE 6th...For Independence Day...here's Kate Smith"
{Does anybody really know what day it is? ;D }
0010 UTC JS says 4th of July is coming up, and today is Sunday June 6th, so I guess this is replay of last months program?
0102 UTC "Star Spangled Banner"-Kate Smith
{Thanks for another entertaining program James Stewart! Whatever day it is... :-\ } ;D
