I had this one here too, southern Wisconsin, though thunderstorm static was definitely getting in the way.  Argh.  Tuned in at 0315 to Louis Armstrong.  Clear station ID and thanks for listening before they went off the air.  SIO 434 despite the staticy annoyance.

Recorder Catch 6925.060 USB

Also have RGG here at fair level in heavy storm noise.  There seemed to be a near constant stream of weak stuff prior to this, and it was a little difficult to determine exactly when RGG started.  There seems to be a noticeable increase in audio at 0300z with Clapton - "Lay Down Sally", and that seems to me to be the program start.

Thanks for the show, Radio Ga-Ga!

Heard here from about 0250z until 0316z ID and sign off. Very weak, and tough under the static.

6925 USB SIO 322-323

Fair to decent signal with fading - switched on the NRU later to help with the noise level, similar details as others.
