I was parked on the frequency when this came up suddenly at 0023 UTC. Opening announcement, into "I Shot The Sheriff". Nice clear audio at about S8 here! Not as much band noise as last night :)
0028 UTC "Island Girl"-Elton John
0032 UTC "Something"-Beatles
0035 UTC "Rock The Boat"-Hughes Hues Corporation (Thanks other posters..never liked the song ;D )
0038 UTC CKLW jingle, into "Kung Fu Fighting"-Carl Douglas
0041 UTC CKLW jingle, weather report, into "House of the Rising Sun"-Animals
0047 UTC "Greatest Hits of All Time"-CKLW jingle, into "Hey Jude"-Beatles
(Hmmm...must be old recording....not parallel to 800 AM)
0053 UTC "Louie, Louie"-Kingsmen
0056 UTC "Light My Fire"-Doors ( Never get tired of hearing this song  8) )
(Signal still S8, but noise level seems to be picking up a bit)
After the news, an interesting acoustic version of "Something"-George Harrison solo?
(Truer words were never spoken Mr. Sinclair!)
Off at 0120 UTC (Thank you for the blast from the past Mr. Jackpine Savage! The songs of my youth :) )

Some music can be heard, but not much more than that. Something sounded like soul or disco. Glad somebody is on the air.

Just now tuned in, so I assume its Northwoods Radio.
S7 and decent audio.  Good copy despite the static crashes from local storms.
'House of the Rising Sun' @ 0045z
Lots of CKLW outtakes.  ID and loons @ 0120z and off.
Thanks for the show.

Presumed to be Northwoods Radio at 0054, noisy into GA due to the ever present weather related static. Listening on the good Ole' Grundig tonight, whip antenna. S5 on that setup.

Loved the CKLW jingle\ and into the Doors......
TWENTY-TWENTY News, great stuff. and another CK Jingle into the Beatles.

Thank you!

Just got home from work, turned on 6925 to catch Northwoods Radio with a solid S9 and excellent audio. Sounds as good as Wolverine Radio. Very impressive! ID at 0120 "This is Northwoods Radio Broadcasting Freedom from the Great Lakes" and off. Thanks for the show this evening, glad I got home in time to catch it the end of it! ;D
