Listening via the SDR in Lodi, New York, which is receiving an S7ish signal and pretty good audio (despite this SDR's continued noise problem) ...

0024 UTC: Host "Merle Haggard" with ID and saying he'll be playing some country music.
0025 UTC: "She's Got You" by Patsy Cline.
0028 UTC: "Lucille" by Kenny Rogers.
0031 UTC: "Merle" back on the mic with an ID and introducing the next song.
0032 UTC: "She Thinks I Still Care" by George Jones.
0035 UTC: "Don't You Ever Get Tired (of Hurting Me)" by Ronnie Milsap.
0037 UTC: Host back on the mic, talking about the themes of the just-played songs, giving an ID, and introducing the next song.
0038 UTC: "Don't Lead Me On" by Mel Street.
0042 UTC: "The Bottle Let Me Down" by Merle Haggard.
0045 UTC: Host back on the mic, talking about the songs, and introducing the next one, "Drinkin' Thing" by Gary Stewart.

Thanks for the classic country music, VFO Radio! Still wondering how you got the great Merle Haggard to return from the dead.

0024 - Very weak in New Mexico, hear a voice in the noise. S1 to S2
0032 - Was able to make out the ending of "Lucille" by Kenny Rogers followed by the voice of an OM.  Not able to make out what was said.
0037 - Signal peaking to S4 during  "Don't You Ever Get Tired" by Ronnie Milsap.
0041 - Back in the mud.  S1 - S2 :( :(
0045 - Lots of host commentary.  Wish I could make it out. Very hard trip to the high desert mag loop this evening.
