I'm only getting around to logging this now, whoops!  I had this one, SIO 333 to 433 on the isthmus, but misheard the Twangy Radio ID as Toynbee.  Sorry about that!  The details all match, including the '30 days in the hole' song and the rude Donald Duck sketch.  Yecch.  the last and only other time I heard that bit, it was on WIXX out of Green Bay, and I'm surprised they snuck it in when they did - on FM, the safe harbor still applies! 

I admit I had a hard time tuning the show in properly; it took some careful twiddling of the dial until I got it.  thanks for the broadcast!

Started an UNID for this, but removed. Definately Twangy radio when I played back SDR recording
S7 with receive array .. good sig, but kind of tinny modulation.
0102  Donald duck style DJ
0106 ID, CW tune
0109 Seems to have dropped out

Our audio isn't tinny, it's twangy.   ;D  The CW tune was Jimmy Buffet "Why Don't We Get Drunk & Screw" .... the twangy tune for the evening.

Thx for the report from Halifax!

Wish I had heard more.... next time !

Thanks for the show.
