Pretty decent signal tonight with nonstop EDM

Signal really took a dive at 0500--barely audible now

VG/excellent signal. Chaos in the chicken coop--both for chickens & egg suppliers. Into Bob Seger "Old-Time Rock'n'Roll"

VG signal. Caught the end of an announcement "...always in style" into a medley of songs played on a stylophone, including "Holy Diver," a Metallica song, "Smooth Criminal," "Take on Me,"
"All Stylophone all the time, The Stylophone Station"
cover of "Thunderstruck"

Pretty great stuff

Finally checking back to the recording. Signal was good here with some audio distortion. Wide variety of older songs of various styles: early rock'n'roll, big band (Glen Miller "In the Mood"), folk, blues, '60s pop brass. No IDs, talk, or audio snips

This has been Alastair Crowley hosting VFO [or BFO?] Radio, providing you with various forms of obscurities. We hope you enjoyed our program this evening and thank you very much for listening."

Perfect signal with light music and (I think) some whistling

VG signal with TCS Unchained. BTO "Let It Ride," Judas Priest "You've Got Another Thing Comin'," & more. It's now been more than 40 years between the 1st time I heard TCS and the most recent (this) time (with a lot of times in between). Thanks for the shows!

VG signal with Europirate-style music. Talk with ID "90.3 FM in Minneapolis and  . . . in St. Paul." Said on 9-11 Saturday mornings, so maybe a live feed. Into an instrumental disco version of "Somewhere over the Rainbow"
Think he said this show is "Tracks from the Past" & said that last song hit the top-40 in 1978. Reading ads for a bunch of events around the Twin Cities area

Fair signal. Music with OM in between in Spanish (I believe). Programming sounds more like a pirate than a peskie, but might just be a peskie playing a couple of songs for friends between QSOing

Excellent signal. Tuned in during the very end of Led Zep "No Quarter." Then YL computer voice said "Thank you for listening. We were testing modulation"
