CKLW Windsor/Detroit Commercial Stn 6930 AM 0139 UTC 5 Mar 2013

Audio from a commercial station, tough to make out the call, it sounded like CKLW, mentions of Charlie Van Dyke and of the Motor City, so CKLW seems likely, apparently he was on the air in the 60s and 70s.
Off 0141z.  About an S8.

Wow, CKLW, that's a blast from the past.  Used to listen to them, along with WIXY 1260, when I was a kid.  I can even remember their old jingles, LOL.
