Very weak signal barely above my noise floor with talk and then indistinguishable music.  Carrier dropped off at 2237 UTC.

I've been hearing this most nights in Michigan.  Seems to be a spur or some kind of harmonic of 1350 WLOU Louisville, KY. (soul music format) that's appearing on 1740 kHz FM.  Anyone else hearing this?

Just speculating, but could this be CHIM from Ontario?

I don't think so.  CHIM hasn't been logged in many years and they never had a powerful signal like this.

Possibly: Radio Corsair or another station. Most def not Community Radio Network.

Agree, this signal is too strong for CRN and CRN would have thrown in an announcement by now (especially at the top of the hour).

S9+20 loud signal with classic Christmas music.  Off at 0353 UTC.  I never caught an ID or any announcements between the songs.  Thanks for the show!

Good signal well over the Hudson TIS at times with oldies, many IDs mentioning AM 1710 & FM 87.7 and being an affiliate to the "Community Radio Network", and a local phone number given soliciting song requests.  Signed off at 0200 UTC with time pips at the TOH and ending with the National Anthem.  Good to hear this one again and not heard by me in years.

Big signal into Western Michigan, S9+ with classical music that does sound like a movie soundtrack.  Wide audio too.

Not too local, I lost it after my local sunrise..  Seemed to be a limited playlist of songs on a loop from what I could tell.  Fair signal at times, a little better this morning just before sunrise, but mostly a struggle to hear at my location.

It's now the next morning and I'm still hearing this one.  Beastie Boys "Intergalactic" at 09:58 UTC and into Greenbaum's "Spirit in the sky".
