Strong steady sig. Caught it late this morning. Old 1940s radio shows with ID "old time radio on the Big Q"

The Q was on early Monday morning also. I haven't really been listening with my receivers since Monday, so I'm wondering now if the Q is operating nightly this week. Need to listen up tonight and see.

SDR recorder catch: The Big Q, 1710 khz AM, signing on at 0617z with old time radio theme featuring long segments of Jack Benny, Abbott & Costello, Mel Blanc, Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis, old radio ads, etc.  ID's heard at 0644z, 0709z, 0738z, 0804z, 0833z, 0857z, etc.  Nice signal as usual.  Thanks for the weeknight show!

Since The Big Q mentioned taking program requests, here's my request for another program by The Night Watchman as I heard back on 2/11/2012 "broadcasting from high atop Constant Jammer Mountain".

Ahh that would be nice. Also maybe some shows involving clips from famous stations such as 800 CKLW (the Big 8), 1310 WKNR (Keener 13 who's towers were recently removed, R.I.P.). Those were Detroit area favorites back in the day. Kind of partial to old Detroit area stations ;D
