S3 With ID at 0103. Rough conditions 

[refmo]

Just above the S3 noise level, but improving.  First noticed at 0052 with "Roundabout".
A fairly steady S4 at 0104.  Announcer with 'Chicken Band Radio[?], Cold Country Canada' and into "Walk on the Wild Side".   Announcer is stronger than the music.  Good audio on peaks.
"Blinded by the Light" @ 0108.
Lots of pesc QRM @ 0113, but announcer still clearly audible with ID's and song announcements.  Rough copy on music.
Getting noticably weaker @ 0122 with America song.
Just bits and pieces of music @ 0138, fair copy on announcer.
ID and off @ 0148.

0107 - Positive ID by OM as: "Cold Country Canada - 6969..."
0108 - Blinded By the Light
0112 - ID by OM
