0003:  S3 and just above the noise floor;  moderate QRN, on the Pittsburgh KiwiSCR.   Heard OM ID as Radio Mushroom and explain they're using "about 60 googolwatts of power".  Played "I can't believe he's going out with her",  then "You give love a bad name". 

0017:  An alarm horn sounded and the OM announced that he's "gotta go".  Apparently that 60 googolwatt nuclear reactor is overheating...

0026:  The siren sounded again, then heard an explosion and then silence.  I think that nuclear reactor finally blew.   lol!
