Turtlehead Radio, 0228, 9/15/13.  "Somewhere over the rainbow / what a wonderful world," (nice song, thanks), ID and e mail, another novelty tune.

I have to do something else, so I'm not paying as close attention as I should.

In and out here.  Good when in.

SDR recording catch. 0209 sign on with an ID. Generally on the weak side signal strength wise, but some very good peaks to S9 at around 0217-0225.
Back on at 0251
IDs at 0339 and then into music "Linger"
0344 More IDs. Then more music.
0353 "That's all for tonight" Shout outs to listeners, mention of HFU.
0355 Final ID and off.
