S9, just above the noise level. Good audio

Kansas - Carry on Wayward Son.
Now getting some QRM that is really wiping out the signal.
Eric Clapton - Cocaine
OM ID weakest pirate station in the nation
Cheap Trick - I Want You to Want Me
OM ID
Alice Cooper - School's out. Signal is getting better
OM ID Old Country Canada 6969 Weakest pirate station in the nation ID over the song, and again after the song. Killing like a villain intro to next song.  
Thin Lizzy - Boys are Back in Town. OM talking over the song. Is it live or Memorex?
Rush - Tom Sawyer
Doobie Brothers - Black Water
Guess Who - American Woman. Starting to fade badly

Thanks for the show
