See a carrier & can hear occasional music, but too weak to ID.

If I guessed, I would say it was W807 out of Chicago Land. But there are plenty of micro pirates on 1710 so it's anyone's guess.

W807, eh? That might explain the het I get there when I use my loop in that direction.

As the backside of the loop was pointing roughly at South Florida, I was thinking it was some of the ethnic pirates that fight it out down there on 1710.
