Listening via the SDR in Fork Union, Virginia, which is receiving an S3 to S5 signal with fair to good audio that's fading in and out at times amid the noise ...

0045 UTC: "Almost Persuaded" by David Houston.
0048 UTC: Male-voiced host setting up the next song as he talked about the country charts.
0049 UTC: "All the Time" by Jack Greene.
0051 UTC: Host thanking the listeners, mentioning the VFO ID, and setting up the No. 12 song on the countdown, " by "Folsom Prison Blues (Live)" by Johnny Cash.
0055 UTC: Host back to talk about the No. 11 song on the American Country Countdown, "My Life (Throw It Away If I Want To)" by Bill Anderson.
0058 UTC: Host talking again into "Hello, Darlin'" by Conway Twitty.
0100 UTC: Host now talking about the emergence in 1971 of the next artist. He then played the song "Easy Lovin'" by Freddie Hart.
0103 UTC: An introduction to this song by the host was followed by "My Hang Up is You" by Country Gentlemen, No. 8 on the countdown.
0106 UTC: Host talking about Conway Twitty again before playing his song "You've Never Been This Far Before," which was No. 7 on the countdown.

Thanks for the music tonight!
