Got them here at S6 signal, playing 'Past the Point of No Return' by Nu Shooz
I think they ID'ed as Radio True North, but I had a static crash right in the middle of the ID.
0410 - 'Don't You Want Me' by Jody Watley
0414 - 'To Live and Die in LA' by Wang Chung
0417 - Clear ID 'You Are Listening to Radio True North'
Then into 'Hot Child in the City' by Nick Gilder.
Thanks for the show!

Signal picking up a bit as the night goes.  Nice Radio True North ID at 0551 UTC, and a dance tune just before that.  S3-S4 but heavy static tonight making reception a bit rough here.  Most songs recognizable and some live announcements intelligible amongst the heavy noise.
