FDR`s death, and then to JFK`s inauguration Jan 20, 1961, and the
start of his speech. I`m just beginning a 9 MHz bandscan, as always
upward from 8989, so I`m bound to hit this when it`s on; continued
bandscan but by 1554 recheck, 9025 already off. Last logged Dec 11,
2025 at same time of day, note! 1554-1600* A few HFU reports say this
