0203 S3 music at my noise floor.

0204 Way down in the noise yet again. I have not had a good path to Ballsmacker for quite some time. I will have to use a Kiwi out of my area.

0204 UTC... a very noisy S3 into metro DC. Music followed by an ID that was unintelligible. Next track has the feel of another Elton John offering. The likely theme reveals itself.

Listening from the website with a 10 out of 10. Working on finding a good SDR to listen from.
