Good signal S5

2220 - music
2224 - music (audio stronger)
2226 - CW, "vvv"
2227 - CW, "...coming"
2229 - CW, "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afotzr91was"

Isn't the youtube URLs case sensitive? I tried a couple variations but nothing worked for me. I am confident the URL is correct except for the last letter a. The signal took a static crash hit and I may have misinterpreted it.

Very weak  - S4 at my noise level - 222

2250 - Chuck Berry music (RIP)
2258 - ID (cw), ..."kishwaukee valley radio 73 de KVA kishwaukee valley radio"
2300 - off air

The ID was repeated several times. I thought I initially "heard" KVR as the callsign on the first announcement. Listening to the playback of the later ID (I did not record the entire transmission) it was distinctly KVA. The signal was right at my noise level and difficult at best so I am not sure on the callsign. It makes sense that it should be KVR.

New one for me. Thanks whoever for the tribute to Chuck Berry, RIP.

Heard now transmitting same broadcast over and over for the past 20 minutes. Heard on 8642.0, 12808.5, & 17016.8 kHz.

I suspect they are probably transmitting on 6477.5 as well but I have no copy here on that frequency. Signals are very strong on all channels.
