2008 Just tuned in, SIO 333
2011 Synth YL ID, Radio Free ??? (could not decipher third word)
2012 Boney M. "Rasputin"
2116 Still going. And I still have no idea what the station name is  :)    Maybe SSTV or even CW would help. Or a non synthesized voice ID.

Nice S8 carrier level but very hard to pull the audio out. Could use some processing to pull the modulation up.

2054 UTC "Crimson and Clover"-Joan Jett & the Blackhearts (Signal is mostly above the noise floor with light fades )
2057 UTC "Buffalo River Home"-John Hiatt
(Seems to be something else on the frequency in the background...unsure if peskies)
2103 UTC "No More"-Long John Baldry
(Seems to be a hum on the sidebands...more pronounced on USB. AM audio is nice at peaks!)
2108 UTC "Lost On You"-LP
2113 UTC YL? with ID "This is Radio Free Banshee? or "?", followed by unid version of "Winds of Change" with numerous xmitter glitches
2117 UTC "Back to You"-Lil Wayne
2120 UTC Carrier off

Interesting! Every time I listen back on my recording, I hear something different on the ID! Maybe 2 separate words after "Radio Free"?  :-\ Myteaquinn's recording sounds like "Radio Free Concert"....hmmm
Here is a link to my recording of the show! The only "clear" ID is at 19 minutes into the recording. Any chance of an email with the correct ID?  :)

Via Westminster, MD ...

2103 UTC: "No More" by Long John Baldry. Big fades every half-minute or so, with another station rising up in the background, but a strong signal otherwise.
2106 UTC: "Bury Me Not on the Lone Prairie" by William Elliot Whitmore.
2108 UTC: "Lost on You" by LP; the song seemed to cut out for a second a few times.
2112 UTC: YL synth voice: "This is Radio Free ..." Banshee?
Then bits of a song going off and on. Sounds like audio problems.
2116 UTC: New song starts, but audio hard to hear. Fading hitting the signal more now.

Signal getting better now. Some undistorted audio coming through.
Going out on a limb here with my bad ears. How does Radio Free Patsy sound?
