Hearing this directly with fair to decent audio amid tonight's noise; it's also coming in with an S1 to S3 signal and fair to decent audio via the SDR in Prince George, B.C. ...

0212 UTC: "Mr. Tambourine Man" by The Byrds.
0213 UTC: Male host talking about the just-played song and introducing the next one, "House of the Rising Sun" by The Animals.
0218 UTC: Vintage car ad, then the host gave an ID and talked a little more, followed by "Dirty Water" by The Standells.
0222 UTC: The host introduced the next song, "Mrs. Brown You've Got A Lovely Daughter" by Herman's Hermits.
0225 UTC: "Louie Louie" by The Kingsmen. The audio got much quieter during this song.
0228 UTC: "That's All, Folks!" from Looney Tunes, then off.

Thanks for the music tonight, Subterranean Radio!

Came on at 0200 UT

Tracks heard in addition to the above:
This Diamond Ring - Gary Lewis and the Playboys
Wooly Bully - Sham the Sham & the Pharoahs
ID
I Got You Babe - Sonny & Cher
Bus Stop - The Hollies

One thing I note -- and this seems to apply across all broadcasters -- some stereo tracks such as Bus Stop by the Hollies come through as only one of the two stereo channels .. in this case just the instrumental track with the vocal deep down in the mix.
