0201 UTC Orchestral music (S6 peaks with light fading and mostly solid above the noise)
0204 UTC Different orchestral song now (Nice audio!)
0210 UTC 50's sounding night club music...
0214 UTC Nice S7 peak, then signal dropped down to S5 at 0216
0224 UTC S8 now!
0233 UTC WDEF ID
0235 UTC "The Look of Love"-?
0245 UTC Signal at noise level now  :(

Thanks for the easy listening tunes...reminds me of my early childhood and listening to WTYM-1600 AM Springfield, Massachusetts! They played the post WWII "Oldies" and similar....
