Fair to good reception via the Fair Hill, Maryland, SDR ...

2202 UTC: "This is Maharishi ... listen to me" song.
2204 UTC: "A Long Way from Home" by The Kinks.
2207 UTC: The Maharishi said something quick, then YL voice with an ID into Maharishi talking over music to end the broadcast. Also gave a postal address, but I didn't catch it all. That might be the old, inactive Providence maildrop.
2209 UTC: Closing song - couldn't ID it, though it may have been a Beatles tune.
2214 UTC: A few more sounds and then off.
