Title: WDOG 6960 AM 2357 UTC 27 AUG 2022
Post by: Ct Yankee on August 27, 2022, 2356 UTC
Fair reception, noisy/fades  Thought it might have been BallSmacker at first but no IS/intro and reception says no.
2357 Music, CW
2358 CW over music
2359 Barking dogs....WDOG?
Thanks for ID, Poacher!  Ice thaw yet?  ;)
0000 "Are You Ready?" Grand Funk Railroad
0003 "Some Kind Of Wonderful" GFR, Reception much better
0008 "Can't Be Too Long" GFR, as a former transportation professional - I hope those are service dogs boarding the GFR
"Poacher - A thaw is what happens when you fall asleep midway through your third scotch on the rocks"

Mark "Four Chord" Farner, a skill he shared with Steve Miller. They both got raked over the coals for it in those days of technical wizards on guitar, but they both banked a lot bucks.
