05:11z right at noise level in the very middle of America. Sounds like Zeppelin "Whole Lotta of Love"
05:12 "Come on Eileen"
05:16z "Cars"
05:20z Hmm, I lived through the eighties as an adult, I should remember this one. "Don't you want me, baby..." sig up to +5Db
05:24z "Get in my Belly!" Austin Powers clip
05:24z Good copy, I just don't recognize the tune.
05:39z "Come on Eileen" reprise a few bars
05:39z Voices with some echo. Can't make out.
05:40z Sounds like live announcer, but too noisy. "Thank you (someone)"
05:41z gone
05:43z Okay, not gone, I think I hear "Col. Turtlehead"? I didn't hear "Catherwood", did I?

Someone calling Col. Turtlehead. Good copy on the exchange between caller and the Col. "Hope to have another show Sat. or Sun."
05:44z Signoff.

Audio is a little thin, but pretty legible now. Sig not really building much, but the noise level is coming down. Also getting the static crashes here, of course.

Thanks for the show!

Ten Tec Jupiter, 31' ground mounted vert with 32 radials.
