Multiple IDs (thanks for this!) along with numerous "White Punks On Dope" IDs, punk-ish music, slightly weak signal around S4 but making it through the noise.

Started with weak copy but gradually building. About S4 over S3 noise and QSB. Heard clear OM ID W-P-O-D and the word "Chicago". Not sure if it was a shout out or part of the set list. I'll update if I can.
Please QSL! This is a super rare one for me!
Please QSL to MaplRadio@gmail.com

Next weeks contest: guess how many Volkswagons can fit in Joy Behars mouth. I pick five.

0223 sign on noted on the SDR recording, directly into music.
ID by YL at 0229z.
S5 to S6 signal at sign on, improved to S7 by 0248z during "School's Out".
ID by OM and then off.

Noted again starting at 0308z, with a weaker signal.

Thanks for the show!

Recorder catch:

6925 USB SIO 322-323

Fair signals overall with fading conditions - similar details as others.
