Not much above the noise floor here. Can make out music, but can't ID anything.

Just catching the tail end, with Stone Soul Picnic.

Awesome S9 signal into N. suburban Boston. You make USB sound good!

In Northern VT the USB signal was squashing Ballsmacker.

Just came back on at 0129. Not sure exactly what the  program is, but is strongly ball-centric. Someone is going BALListic.

Okay signal into Northern VT. Just using a portable with built in telescopic whip, but sounds good. Couldn't copy at all until Wolverine graciously moved to  6950.

Nice signal into northern VT.  Listening on a portable with just the built-in telescoping antenna and it sounds great.

0018 ID and switch to 6950, with a little more Mills Bros
0019 Sounds like Chuck Berry
0022 Hello Josephine
0024 Hard Hearted Hannah

Great programming. Thanks Wolverine.

Decent but not strong signal into Northern VT this evening. S6 maybe? Can't tell for sure 'cause I'm sitting outside in the dark with a wine, my wife, and a portable without an S meter, and I'm more interested in enjoying the programming than logging details. Thanks, Ballsmacker!
