S5 to S7 signal heard via the Lodi, New York, SDR with good audio and moderate noise tonight. This is a vintage WKBW broadcast; someone else did a similar Jack Armstrong broadcast about a week ago ...

0053 UTC: DJ reading ad for Young Fashion Corner and radio jingle for a station I didn't catch, then "Games" by Red Eye.
0056 UTC: Fast-talking DJ Jack Armstrong back with temperature, talking weather a little, then reading another clothing store ad.
0057 UTC: Radio jingle into "Rose Garden" by Lynn Anderson.
0100 UTC: Jack Armstrong reading an ad for a young women's charm school, then weather forecast, followed by "Be My Baby" by Andy Kim.
0105 UTC: Jack on the mic again into "Good Lovin'" by the Young Rascals.
0108 UTC: Jack Armstrong talking a mile a minute on the mic again, saying Christmas is coming up, and promoting an event and then an ad.
0109 UTC: Radio jingle into "Your Song" by Elton John.
0113 UTC: Jack talking again into "I Think I Love You" by The Monkees.
0116 UTC: Talking and weather again. That was followed by "Let's Work Together" by Canned Heat feat. Adolfo de la Parra.
0119 UTC: Jack is back on the mic into "Remember Me" by Diana Ross.

Thanks for this slice of vintage music radio!
