Guns 'n' Roses, "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" audible here at 1752. Signal strength S6, sitting pretty consistently above the noise level.
Something country-sounding at 1758.
OFF at 1803? Or a new program starting? Moderate QRM.
WREC ID at 1811.
Jerky Boys prank call at 1812. Remember passing those cassettes around the schoolyard in the 80s...
Wellsville mail drop given at 1820
The Radio Animal gives WREC ID at 1826, followed by PJ Sparks with BRS maildrop address
Year 1995 mentioned at 1832, followed by Johnny Wong seminar and Funkin Donuts parody ads
"Pirate radio sucks if you're not tuned to WREC Radio Free East Coast" then OFF at 1857
