S7 carrier, decent copy with "Liberation Frequency" by Refused @ 1654.  Occasional deep fades.
1657 - YL announcement 'this is an unauthorized....'. Fades getting more frequent.
1658 - "Free Radio Gainesville" by Hot Water Music.  Nice copy on the short peaks.
1704 - "Pirate Radio" Mojo Nixon.  Signal propagation is deteriorating, mostly poor copy.  Still decent on the occasional peak.
1706 - "We Want the Airwaves" Ramones
1742 - nice peak with ID and talking with an operator that had recently (1995) been raided by FCC.

Thanks for the relays, TRI.
