They ID as Summerfest Radio although the 49MB outlet is probably an unauthorized retransmission.

It's holding well into coastal VA @ 0235Z for the second night in a row.

They are doing a respectable job making it into Kentucky, although I haven't been able to pull an ID out of the noise.
I did hear the MacArthur Park song.
and hearing 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' @ 0256z
