     Mary" by the Association, Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit" and
     "Incense and Peppermint" by the Strawberry Alarm Clock AND a pair
     of my favs: "Just Dropped In (To See what condition my condition
     was in) by The First Edition and Lemon Pipers' "Green Tamborine"
     (or was the the Turtle's version?) Gawd, I AM an old hippy! :o 
     Fun show. Getting better as it went on ....
       444+43+ at first, up to 4+4+4+4+4 by ToH, w/my local QRM

DXing *either* from:
MI -- South Central Lower Michigan with a 25 m randomwire and a LOT of local noise!
or
MI2 -- the tip of Michigan's Thumb with a 100 metre longwire and much quieter conditions.  Radios can be either an SPR-4 or IC-R71A or SDRplay
