Listening via the SDR in Presque Isle, Wisconsin, which is receiving an S9+ signal and good audio despite lots of background noise on the band tonight ...

0219 UTC: "Porkchop" by Cowboy Troy feat. Monro Brown.
0222 UTC: Oscar Mayer wiener commercial jingle. Followed by what sounded like a parody of that jingle.
0223 UTC: WPIG ID jingle, followed by a short song I couldn't identify.
0224 UTC: "I Am a Pig" by 2wo.
0227 UTC: Male-voiced ID: "The Voice of the Trough. W.P.I.G." That was followed by a short female-voiced ID.
0228 UTC: "Sing Me a Song That I Know" by Blodwyn Pig.
0230 UTC: Porky Pig sound clip from a Warner Bros. cartoon.
0231 UTC: "(Eins Zwei Drei ...) Schweine" by Gluk'oZa.
0234 UTC: Male voice saying pigs are better pets than dogs, and thanking WDOG (for the relay, I presume).
0235 UTC: "Buster" by moe.
0239 UTC: WPIG ID jingle into "Guyute" by Phish.
0246 UTC: Quick Morse code that I didn't catch. I assume it was an ID during the Phish song.
0247 UTC: Morse code again, then Porky Pig saying "That's all folks!" That was followed by a short song, "Bye Bye Bacon" by Mr. Miln, at the end.
0248 UTC: Off, though the ute that's been plaguing this frequency the past 10 minutes or more is still on.

Thanks, WPIG!

Great copy here on my SDR recording. 0131 sign on with a pig squealing over music, followed by an ID and then into Funkytown.
