Mention of XFM's great AM signal.
Into "Friday on My Mind" by The Easybeats @ 0215z
"The Shape I'm In" by The Band
"I Know You're Out There" by Moody Blues getting some ute qrm (or some distortion) during this song.
Was apparently distortion.
Much better audio @ 0238 with "Love Caught Up to Me" by Dwight Yoakam
Heavy distortion is back during the Rascal's tune @ 0240z. Suddenly cleared up @ 0242z
Still S6 and during final Outlaws song and 'goodnight folks'. Off @ 0335z

Good signal strength here, but there's some distortion on the signal, like a component of the audio is kind of growling along with the part that sounds cleaner. Roy Orbison version of "Pretty Woman"
