I'm listening right now and just heard everyone get a mention, but I also heard the ID of 77LJS, not the WTPK as in the topic (or are they one in the same?)

Listening from the 900 foot loop W3HFU KiwiSDR in Westminster, MD. Signal is S7 on the meter

Scott Joplin is playing, make that a second Joplin tune.

Thank you, I usually miss the show with my changed work schedule, and never caught on to that before. Wish I had the recorder going when everyone's names were mentioned, always fun to have a record or being shouted out world-wide.
