Lounge Lizard is S7 into New Hampshire, good copy.
Listening in USB to avoid the QRM from peskies on LSB.

2221z Opened with Volare and then host Dean Soundgarden gave an ID and noted we will be hearing program #3.

2224z Tom Jones - Thunderball
2226z Al Martino - Spanish Eyes
2231z Sammy Davis Jr. - Candy Man, What Kind of Fool Am I?
2249z Mel Torme - It Happened in Monterey
2254z Off, thanks for the relay...

Here's a QSL from the original broadcast (from the HFU wiki):

Not a particularly good copy here into Maine. Very noisy and also there are peskies chatting underneath the signal. Can make out the song "Candyman at 2223z.

Hearing some music popping through the noise occasionally here in Central IL. I think its still early for me to get a good copy.

Signed-off at 2254 after the Volare' signature.

Peskies were louder than the broadcast, making listening a joy.

A little stronger just before sign-off and I got an ID and "Don't drink and Drive."

Peskies still at it as I type this.


Thanks for the broadcast,


Ron

Wow - Have not heard this one on the air in a few years.  Always had some nice "lounge" music for us!
