Very weak and no ID yet.

0059 Sign on w/ bits of 3DN - "Black & White", "Who Are You"
0104 Lee Michaels - "Do You Know What I Mean"
0116 "Black & White" again, whole song
0123 SMB - "Jet Airliner"? Dobie Gray - "Drift Away"?
0133 Noting some rapid carrier drift, and some intermittent on/off; signal is a tad stronger now, but still hearing mainly
        bass line here
0137 "Black & White", "Who Are You" clips
0144 off

Has been declining steadily in readability since the start.
Thank you for the ID, DimBulb!
