I never thought I'd have heard this...around 0300 tonight on VO-52 I was 
calling CQ around 145.910 and heard some FM. I switched over and had almost 
perfect copy on a Spanish language music broadcast of some sort. I quickly 
started recording it and have about a 2 Mb file I can send anyone who is 
interested.

I always though U/V was generally safe from this sort of unlicensed garbage, 
but sadly I was wrong.

BTW, still had a nice QSO with W0EOZ in North Dakota, and VE3NPC, K9QHO, and 
YV4DYJ on the FO-29 pass right afterwards.
