Strong signal, just tuned in to hear music.

Still hearing RFW at 2242, although the signal is getting weaker.

Picking up RFW with good signal into Omaha.  Thanking supporters of Wounded Warriors Project by buying RFW T-shirts.
This may be the best signal I have heard from FRW to date.

Didn't catch all of the request number but could you possibly play "Hounds of Love" by Kate Bush?  Thanks DJ for playing the request!
