Great signal and clean audio. S9
I believe that this is the first time I heard this station.  Nice to be able to enjoy it with such a good signal.

JB mentioning the passing of Bozo (Jay) at 2129 UTC. Jay interview at SWLfest with JB. Glad to hear JB give old Bozo some props... Jay's passing went too unnoticed.

Tuned in at 2138 here.  Very impressive S9+5 signal and very nice audio with presumed SWLfest interview.  Near 100% intelligibility here.

2209 Musical interlude
2211 ID, QSL via whypradio@gmail.com, thanks for listening!
2216 "...that was just about the worst radio station I ever heard" and off

Thanks WHYP!

Tuned in halfway thru Rockit. Amazing signal up until the "yeaaaahhh" parody when fades started getting a bit deeper and more frequent. Really good fidelity tho, I was floored when I tuned it up.

 Just popped in the house to submit this report during the interview playback, back out to the workshop to continue listening!

WHYP, 6874.7, 2140 - 2217, 1/18/14.

Hearing the interview.

Can barely tell the topics.

Much better after 2200.  "Setting the record straight with Jay" interview, rock.  ID and talk about Jay, g mail address for QSL, ID "bye", song to off.

Great signal now.  S8.

Excellent signal with long interview with Jay from the lobby at the Winterfest. JB pretty much just letting Jay talk at length about whatever he felt like talking about. Nice to hear JB again
