Tuned in at 0106 utc on Brookfield Wi sdr with noisy S9-S9+10 signal, much storm static, "long distance runaround" by Yes, at 0111 Ballsmacker ID, at 0116 switched to Traverse City MI sdr with noisy S9+20 signal because Brookfield WI sdr kicked me out, it's a telephone themed program, at 0140 got back into Brookfield WI sdr with louder signal, at 0149 "Wichita lineman" but not by Glen Campbell, at 0155 signal improved at bit, nice tunes, thanks. At 0228 goodbye announcement, piano interval, off at 0233.  FYI I spent 36½ years at Ma Bell in the central offices.

While sites like this are awesome, they kind of take the sport away from Ball Smacker's guess-the-theme nights! Strong into NE once that wideband thing went away 0125.
