Excellent reception

2356 "Walking Down the Line" Arlo Guthrie from Woodstock.  (Editor's note: On your bucket list add "see a concert at the Guthrie Center in the Berkshires")
2358 Arlo to Twilight Zone theme.
2359 "Ride Captain Ride" Blues Image
0000 "White Rabbit" Jefferson Airline....sounds like local am.
0002 Back to Blues Image
0006 Music interrupted by drops in signal, interviews with Woodstock attendees.

Thanks for the delightful music, strong transmission,  and fond memories.  Will switch to the bedside pl-600 shortly - 0800utc comes by pretty early.

Music's just barely audible above the noise when listening in USB mode here, where it's still very much daylight.

Extremely weak on the SDR recording from 2337 sign on, until the last two minutes when the signal came up, just before sign off.
