Thanks Marc. I am trying to put together a report to e mail. The sweep tones came in fairly well and I heard some 1000 cycle tones as well as the phone off the hook sounds. I would love to get at least 1 CW ID. I will check out the cassette tonight. I am a bit concerned about recording to the HDD as a permanent record, as there are hiccups in software. On an analog cassette, the audio will be there until I erase it.

Voice ID, all of 3 seconds, noted here at 0053:42 EST. Then into whoop tones and Morse Code. BTW, Total Recorder is great. Once you use it, you will never use cassettes again.

I still need to go back and re-run the cassette tape to see if any code or voice IDs came through the jumble. My beverage is not as directional as I would like at the bottom of the band. Above 1200 it is very directional.
