0023 Back again with "Wheel in The Sky". About S7 or so. Pretty readable despite static crashes. I think the ID was Radio Mushroom? OM mentioned something about nukes. Perhaps the reference is to mushroom clouds.
0025 Sounds like Bob Seger. Music fidelity is a bit thin.
0028 OM with phone call saying they took over a nuclear power plant for the broadcast.
0029 "Pink Houses" by John Mellencamp.

S5-S7 signal, with the audio staying above the noise on the band, heard via the Fair Hill, Maryland, SDR ...

0049 UTC: "Little Lies" by Fleetwood Mac.
0051 UTC: OM said it was getting hot in his radio shack; added that whenever you see a mushroom cloud in the sky, you know Radio Mushroom is on the air. His talking was followed by an air raid siren and explosion noise.
0053 UTC: Off.

Thanks for the broadcast!
