Weak but clear signal only with antenna rotated just right. Good modulation is making this signal carry well. Maybe 2.4 kHz wide signal.

Thanks for the show. Your ID faded in clear and loud, and the nice YL's too. Good studio work!

Just picking up Kodachrome if the info helps you. Clear audio. No fades.

Fading in and out here in NoVA...sounds really good..then fades to nothing. Just played Monty Python skit before ID. Not sure what this is; in the middle of a fade-out.

The Eagles - Take It Easy intro....

Paul Revere and the Raiders - Indian Reservation



LAst song played was Bread - Guitar Man, then signoffs, 0304.
