S4 to S5... weak audio
0151 Hey Joe by The Jimi Hendrix Experience
0154 Voodoo Child (Slight Return) by The Jimi Hendrix Experience.... also picked up Twilight Zone???
0202 Magic Carpet Ride by Steppenwolf
Are there two stations on this freq or are they playing two different songs at the same time?
Both are weak here,  so hard to tell.

OK, I see it's not just me and others are hearing it too. Unlistenable (is that a word?) to me at this point.  I'll check back later.
