S9+ signal coming into the Traverse City, Michigan, SDR, and the audio level's good, but lots of noise on the band tonight ...

0136 UTC: "Baby I Love You" by The Ronettes.
0138 UTC: Female announcer with ID: "This is Wall of Sound Radio" into "Da Doo Ron Ron" by The Crystals.
0140 UTC: "Little Latin Lupe Lu" by The Righteous Brothers.
0142 UTC: "Chapel of Love" by The Dixie Cups.
0145 UTC: "I Only Want to Be With You" by Dusty Springfield.
0148 UTC: Female-voiced ID again into "He's a Rebel" by The Crystals.
0150 UTC: "I Got You Babe (Soundtrack Version)" by Sonny & Cher.
0153 UTC: "Just Once in My Life" by The Righteous Brothers. I'm now listening via the Fair Hill, Maryland, SDR, which has a huge S9+ signal, pretty good audio, and much less noise than the Upper Midwest.
0157 UTC: "Soul and Inspiration" by The Righteous Brothers.
0200 UTC: ID again into "Walking in the Rain" by The Ronettes.
0204 UTC: Sounded like it went off, but I could still faintly hear music. I finally found the signal again via the Elizabeth City, N.C., SDR, playing "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore" by The Walker Brothers. The signal's coming in with about S7 strength at that SDR.
0207 UTC: "Then He Kissed Me" by The Crystals.
0209 UTC: "Unchained Melody" by The Righteous Brothers.
0213 UTC: ID again into "Uptown" by The Crystals.
0215 UTC: "You've Lost that Loving Feeling" by The Righteous Brothers.
0219 UTC: "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah" by Bob B. Sox & The Blue Jeans.
0222 UTC: "River Deep Mountain High" by Tina Turner.
0225 UTC: ID again, then "Rock and Roll Heaven" by The Righteous Brothers.
0229 UTC: Female announcer with email address (shortwavepirateqsls@gmail.com), then a male voice said thanks for listening, and off.

Thanks for the music, Wall of Sound Radio!
