S9+ @ 0000 with ID, then old-time tune that my Shazam will not identify.  Low end EQ is a little different than normal for Wolverine.
0005 - announced he was going to check out the audio problem.
0021 - back on, audio sounding normal
0029 - "On Treasure Island" Louis Armstrong
0109 - still S9+, "After The Gold Rush" Natalie Merchant

00:00 UTC - Loud and clear with what sound like an old 40's radio broadcast.
00:05 UTC - Announcer expressed that he is experiencing some technical difficulties and is taking a break for some "tech support" and hopes to be back shortly.

SINPO=34443

003- 30s sounding tune with big band and YL vocals, but can't ID. Has a chicken sounding theme.
005- Silence, and then OM says he's having an issue with the audio. Will hopefully be back in a bit. IDs and then says he's going off for some tech support.
006- OTA.

Signal was about s9+10 on my receiver when he stopped

Tuned back in after 0030

Good signal on my SDR in Michigan (Is Wolverine Radio in Michigan as his name implies?)
55544 audio nearly 4 kHz

0031 A House of Gold - Hank Williams
0034 Black Diamond
0037 ID - Pearly Queen - Traffic
0041 You Got the Silver - Rolling Stones
0045 Heart of Gold - Neil Young
0048 Your Gold Teeth - Steely Dan
0054 Shine on You Crazy Diamond - Pink Floyd
0058 Golden Years - David Bowie

Looks like there is a theme... Gold, Diamond, Pearls, Silver, Gold and Gold again, Diamond.... etc
