OM mentioned a few times thru broadcast of various "Un-Shazam-able" xmas music: i.e. Blondie (rapture samples mixed into rap-style xmas tune) Near 21:20
Few peskies at times.
Patti Smith (near end)
ID'd + QSL requests to address in Pennsy, toward end of broadcast and noted special christmas broadcast theme.
Great audio and signal was relatively strong, averaging at S3 in Randolph County WV, on portable Eton Satellit Executive, with 40-foot longwire plugged in.

 ::) Yes, Holiday music appreciated. Received in South Carolina Signal at times quite good at -65dbm. 2015 UTC. Using RTL Dongle and vertical antenna. There has been unfortunately radar intrusions in this band raising noise floor. Thanks for the cast.. we will keep listening. I think it was Winter Wonderland, but my Christmas music knowledge has faded with my age.
Radio is dying. We need to give it shelter
