Via a recording.

Opened with the announcer's voice at 0240. I never heard an ID until 0303, along with the date and that the program was live.  Read the 37th psalm and then something from Whittaker Chamber's memoir (or some such).  Interesting reading, thanks.  How they all ignored the pains from heart problems was amazing--perhaps because there was was nothing medicine could do and, rather than become bed-ridden, they chose to live out their lives?   35453 in Wyomissing.  Gone at 0304.

35443 in Wyomissing.  A carrier appeared at 0217 and the programming started a few seconds later.  ID at 0222.  At first I set the bandwidth at 6000 Hz, then 9000, and finally 10,000.  Might have been wider but for the noise.  Closed down at 0335 and then the carrier wandered up to 6934 or so, when it returned to 6930 and was gone for good.

Fired up at 0206 with some Blues, then an SSTV image in Scottie 1 at 0214.  I was pleased to see it posted here as I had no idea what the image showed.  Why?  25342 here, a noisy night.  A few spoken IDs and then an SSTV ID in Scottie 1 at 0252, when the BC ended.

Actually around for the beginning of the program at 0118, followed by a promo for the Million Dollar Weekend at 0121.  I enjoyed the music; thanks!   35343 in Wyomissing.  Likely live as Yeah Man called the top of the hour and the day.

Via a recording with the program in progress.  Tuned in at 0042 and they signed off at 0203 with a promo for WDOG.  45454 in Wyomissing.  At 0147 mentioned that Yeah Man was on 6925.

Via a recording.  35342 in Wyomissing, which is not unusual.  Generally, AARS is 25 to 30 dB above the background noise and is often unusable.  Gone at 0134.

Noise levels higher than normal (minus 115 dB for the background stuff) and Ballsmacker is only about 35 dB above that.  Occasional fades to unusable.  Nice selection of music.

From a recording.

There was a very intricate waterfall image at 2309.  A highly detailed chicken and some words.  The low strength of the signal and the noise made the image very difficult to discern and I never got any handle on the words.  I'd love to see the image on a better night.

Don't know if this is a continuation, but at 0039 I heard talk of being a "real patriot," Fox New, and then the song Red, White, and Blue and it was gone at 0045.

25342 in Wyomissing.

10,000 Hz bandwidth is a good fit.

Unusable here.  SSTV in Scottie 2 was unusable--I have no clue what the image is.

6934.92.  Just a nubbin on the waterfall about 10 dB above the background noise.  Not a hint of audio.
