Multiple ID's @ 2336

2319 UTC on 6935.3 KHZ with some finger picking just above the noise
Signal picked up just a bit around 2328 UTC with some good old boys singing and some fancy fiddle playing
2332 UTC I think there might have been a Radio Appalachia ID just now, followed by some more good time picking and fiddling :)
2337 UTC Clear ID by OM....You are listening to Radio Appalachia...
2351 UTC Local microinverter noise just went off and much clearer here :) S meter is bouncing from S1 -S6 though....
2356 UTC OM with clear ID, signature Three Stooges clip, then another ID....."High above Moundsville West Virginia...This is Radio Appalachia", followed by a live  Johnny Cash with medley including "I Walk The Line" (there...I know this one!)

Ralph Stanley and his band drank up all my beer at Bluegrass festival I was working 30 plus years ago this past weekend. They never did pay me back.

I guess I'll have to put a lien on the old buzzard's estate.
