WDDR, 3440u, 1-1-16, 35443

Nice S5 signal here on a mediocre antenna for this frequency. ID at 0300z. Good to hear this station again - looking at my last QSL for Le Show #5 from back around '07 or '08. Good to hear you again.

0308z - Traffic - Shanghai Noodle Factory
0322z - Tragically Hip - Three Pistols, for our Corqette
0456z - Syd Arthur - Edge of the Earth - still S6 on peaks

Thanks for the show.

Extremely noisy here with levels about S7 - Wolverine peaking out just above

0139z - ID then into two rounds of SSTV. Not sure I'll be able to make out any tunes. Live OM afterward.

Just tuned at 0124z to hear JB's distinctive voice on a fade-up. About S1, but not much of an antenna for this frequency.
Great to hear WHYP again. It's been a while.

0125z - sounded like an intro to a parody song "......, shall we?"
0126z - "S..T..R..A..K..AAA", then WHYP ID - nice bump up to S7

Enough signal into Chicago to get the synch to lock up, but cannot pull any audio out of it.
