Heard since before 1600z this morning. Non stop Christmas music, with two IDs heard so far.

Here's a recording of their ID: http://www.spynumbers.com/whyp/1610.WAV

And a slowed down version: www.spynumbers.com/whyp/1610slowed.wav

Hearing them again this morning. I had to run some errands, so I put 1610 on the car radio, and could hear them pretty well. As I drove mostly south, they started to fade out, and were pretty much gone 10 miles away. Infer from that what you will :-)

Sounds like someone is having a lot of fun!  Haven't heard an AM BCB pirate in a really long time out this way.  It takes a lot more engineering to put an AM pirate on than an FM.  Bravo to them!
