WMFQ ID at 2342 and then back into bad 90's rock music. The upshot is a nice S9+20 signal.

Very good signal at S9+10 with some fades down to S9. Excellent audio. Using SAM mode. Very loud. Thanks for the show! Signals are really making it down here tonight.

Signal booming in loud and mostly noise free over 6 kHz wide.

Taking A Lot Today playing now. Think that's the name. Or, The Army?
