100- YL recorded ID with bowling pin sound effect, over first tune.
100- "Everybody Hurts" by REM.
105- "Pain In My Heart" by Otis Redding.

I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com

Excellent signal. I tuned in during the Police "King of Pain." Reminded me of seeing its video on Friday Night Videos 40 years ago
