Mr. Sycko followed XFM 0145z , 4185 USB.
Fair to good signal through heavy local RFI on the backyard portable. Doors "People are Strange," maybe Peter Murphy?
0236z faded out to the outdoor portable and home receiver, switched to SDR. Very good via east coast SDR, Halloween movie theme music.
0240z Frankenstein, not sure if Edgar Winter Group or other.
0246z Sycko Radio ID and Halloween greetings

My listening observations are that I heard various Halloween sound effects, and some of the Halloween movie sound tracks, and other great stuff there. It was a good show to kick off the Halloween season. Radio used was the Tecsun PL-368 with a long wire antenna.
