Listening since 0138.  music and ID's (including over music), with PJ Sparx talking, some shout outs and ID's every few songs.  Some initial problems with a ringing mic, however fixed it and got good audio from the talk as well as the music.

Started out poor - fair and improved to good by 0230. 

Thanks for the show.
