Was going to hit the sack here and heard this at 0336 UTC. 0338 UTC "Little Drummer Boy" just ended at 0341 UTC. Looking at the posting from kgb and Rafman, I betcha this was the UNID mixing with WHYP-6925 earlier on this evening! Come All Ye Faithful was playing before abrupt sign off and on 6924.1 too!

Still audible here in NY, although it's only an S4 or so, with fading.  The audio is nice and strong and punching through.  0352 UTC a jazzy version of "Merry Christmas"  Pretenders at 0355 UTC with "2000 Miles"  At 0358 UTC, one of my favorites, Slade with "Merry Christmas Everybody".

I can hear the Pretenders doing 2000 Miles at 0357, but just barely. Great song, regardless of the reception.

Coming in clearly but not with a very strong signal. The YL and OM announcers carry well. Rock song now at 0405 utc a bit hard to make out.

Signal very strong now using SAM mode. S9.

Song is coming in pretty good now!  Thanks for the show Captain.
