Pretty good signal mixing with a lot of static in Chicago this morning.

1600z - Came on with Radio Ga Ga song then off after ID and email.

Pretty sure I hear the old General Cinema Theatres score about 1755z as a tune-up.

Extremely insubstantial and fading into Chicago. Some static crash from the recent storm.

Music with ID's at 0520z and 0526z. Too much static crash and fade to tell the song.

0542z - still on with rock or maybe punk and frequent ID's.
0604z - can still catch bits of music, but mostly in the noise.
