S5-S7 signal with pretty good audio and moderate noise heard via the Lodi, New York, SDR ...
0100 UTC: Blues rock music with good audio.
0104 UTC: Usual British-accented female (Dita?) with introduction and Radio Free Spirit ID into more bluesy rock instrumental music.
0106 UTC: Funky rock song ("I'm Back"?) that Shazam won't identify, though the audio keeps cutting in and out.
0111 UTC: Female host talking about how the studio smells like a coffee shop, then giving ID, and talking about broadcasting from the "moss-covered newsroom." She then talked about the raccoons finding mysterious files, demanding 12 crunchy peanut butter sandwiches for the files, and how negotiations with the raccoons are going. Could they be the Epstein files?
0115 UTC: "We Will Rock You" cover by a hard-rock band; Shazam's not identifying the artist. The host was talking during the song at times.
0118 UTC: The host gave another ID, then the signal and audio cut out again. The host came back and promoted the "Rusty Antenna Emporium" and "Cold Coffee Delivery Service," as well as "Mystic Muffler," an auto shop.
0120 UTC: Hard-rock cover of Britney Spears' "Oops! ... I Did It Again."
0123 UTC: Porky Pig sound clip, then "Hand In My Pocket" by Alanis Morissette, then what sounded like an accordian-led version of "Black Dog" by Led Zeppelin.
0126 UTC: Accordian-led version of "Killing In the Name Of" by Rage Against the Machine, followed by a System of the Down cover I couldn't identify.
0130 UTC: Announcer talking about making a makeshift interrogation corner as Juan Valdez tries to question the raccoons about the files.
0133 UTC: ID by host: "This is Radio Free Spirit, where even the raccoons have lawyers now. Keep 43 meters weird," then more music.
Thanks for another entertaining program! More noise than usual, but it sounds like that's to be expected with the reduced power you're dealing with. Thanks for the effort to get on the air tonight!

0117 S7 rock music. Nice audio into NYC.

We have the antenna squared tonight, but the transmitter keeps shutting off and restarting. Got the power folded back to 50 percent to try and prevent overheating. Last night was a disaster.
Thanks for tuning in!
