Listening via the SDR in Shrewsbury, Vermont, which is receiving an S9+ signal and very good audio with little noise ...
0101 UTC: "Who Can It Be Now?" by Men at Work with the occasional bark or two in the background.
0103 UTC: "Treat Me Right" by Pat Benatar.
0106 UTC: "Don't You Want Me" by The Human League (a big hit from my early teen years).
0109 UTC: The Professor gave an ID and mentioned he's playing songs from 1981 (so I was 10 years old then). That was followed by "Under Pressure" by Queen and David Bowie.
0112 UTC: "Kids in America" by Kim Wilde (also a great tune, though it poses the question of where exactly is "East California"?).
0116 UTC: WDOG jingle into "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic" by The Police.
0120 UTC: Dog howl into "Stand and Deliver" by Adam & The Ants (back when he was still sort of punk).
0123 UTC: The Professor was back, talking about the state of technology back in 1981, followed by "In the Air Tonight" by Phil Collins.
0127 UTC: "Jessie's Girl" by Rick Springfield.
0130 UTC: Professor with ID, then "Bette Davis Eyes" by Kim Carnes.

Thanks for the great music tonight, WDOG!

Oh yeah! This is what makes shortwave worth listing to! '84 was a grand year indeed!

Thanks!

Tough copy at 03:22 with Boys of Summer, by Dave Henley. A LOT of summertime static into Masset. It's still almost 2 hours until LSS, though.
03:27 DJ talk, and then into Magic, by the Cars. If not for the static, reception would be pretty decent, especially with a little wider USB setting.
03:36 Fred Schneider
Monster (Album Version). WDOG ID at 03:38 and back to music. Much improved already during the previous song. Starting to overpower the static now quite nicely! New Sensations by Lou Reed at 03:40.
Off at 03:56 tonight. Thanks for the program! Walt

Excellent with '80s alt rock at 0339

I managed to get about 16 minutes from 0322 with the definite ID at 0338
20260604_0322_UT_6925_khz_USB_North_America_WDOG.mp4 (https://player.mediadelivery.net/play/502138/7afdffde-1f1e-4204-a851-d36a543af3cf)
Reception wasn't great and so the only song I heard clearly was Boys of Summer by Don Henley
Tony Pavick
