0008-0010 OM, significant fading and qrm, can only make out the odd word. Heard something about firing a warning shot.
0018 hearing bits of Jumping Jack Flash rising out of the static.

Thanks for the show! If only the sun was down where I am.

0036 signal is much improved, still a tough copy but I can hear "People Got to Be Free" pretty well.
0037 Think - Aretha Franklin
0040-41 OM, probably an old newscast? "Dan Rather in New York", "Civil right movement" among snippets I'm catching.
0054 "You are listening to The Crystal Ship with Echoes of 1968."
0118 Station ID into "Chicago" by Graham Nash. Signal still fading by much stronger and much less noise than before.
