Red Beacon Radio, 7610 AM, 2146, 3.26.15.  Hard rock segued.

Don't think it's scheduled.

Listened for a while and went to dinner.  Just back (2335) and the signal is S8!

2342 announcer on with talk, complaining about being jammed from China, shout out to various other pirates, ID, redbeaconradio @ aol.com, more rock
