Tuned in at 1653 to hear "More Than A Feeling" by Boston at S4 (S5 peaks).  Noisy but readable.  Good copy on peaks.

"what?"

2057 UTC - One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer
2101 UTC - I'm gonna get high man, gonna get loose...need me a triple shot of that juice Signal up to S7 with peaks to S8 armchair copy!
2105 UTC - Machine gun sound effect into Surfin' Bird with helicopter flyover sounds (more Full Metal Jacket clips)
2108 UTC - Van Halen - I'll Wait (another Amphetamine Radio staple) - signal dropped down a tiny bit to S5 with peaks to S6
