I was still tuned in and making food before this one started, it had a false start and then at about 2200, it came on for real and started by mentioning they were doing "Motown Anthology Part 1", the e-mail and first song was "Edwin Starr - War" followed by another voice break and then "Edwin Starr - 25 Miles" followed by another voice break and more Edwin Starr

Listening from K1VL Shrewsberry, VT KiwiSDR very strong signal, about 8 to 9 out of 10.

Please send an eQSL to [email protected] and thank you for the show!
