S5 here at 0059 UTC with Spirit's "1984" into another tune at 0103 UTC. Signal just a hair off freq, but pretty good audio above the noisy band! Same UNID as last night I think{This first part of the posting is the UNID on USB}
This next part is the WMFQ on AM
0124 UTC "Midnight at the Oasis" as sung by the camel I think...
0131 Beach Boys mangled mess of California Girls...announcers in unison with "WMFQ-Where's my F***ing QSL" ID

I'm hearing both the AM signal and the USB broadcasts in NE Ohio too.  Taking turns drifting over each other.   USB station was gone after a few minutes.

Decent selection of music - good signal after USB station was off.  Many IDs(???) of "Where's my Fckin QSL"   Seems some years ago there was a station WMFQ - I wonder this is a repeat / replay of one of their tapes?

***********************

Now hearing what sounds like "VRN" over and over again for a minute at 0140, then clear WMFQ IDs with Providence drop at 0142.

Catching it here also just above the noise from some local QRM with a S7-8 signal playing music and just heard some code in there also at 0130. :) Partial ID at 0135.
