Only just above the noise here, about S4.  Thanks for the shoutout RTN.  Announcer audio level seems a bit higher than the music audio level.

Decent sig into NE Ohio with 35333.  Some noise and moderate fades.  

ID at 0237.  It sounded like Hot Rod Lincoln at 0250.  

0254 Don't Fear the Reaper.

Update:  Clear ID above the noise at 0300 followed by "Bad Moon Rising", into another song at 0303.  

Signal improving as the show went on.  Some random QRM.
