0008 OM voice being copied, local QRM not helping me to understand it. S6 on the meter, but wide signal, about 4 kHz.
0010 "Spread Your Wings" Queen
0014 OM voice, could copy a bit more, references to Al (I presume Fansome?)
0016 "Electric Funeral" Black Sabbath
0021 OM voice, "memorial program" and "rest in piece" copied. Into "Don't Fear the Reaper" BOC with DJ voiceover the first few lines. "Don't Fear the Fansome."
0027 OM speaking, into commercial for a funeral parlor
0029 "All Dead, All Dead" Queen
0035 Shazam not cooperating, but song sounds like a gospel tune. Signal fading somewhat and local QRM not helping. Still decent though. (Googling lyrics tells me it's "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" but artist remains a mystery)
0040 OM back on, "rest in peace." Local QRM bad now. Sounds like "Amazing Grace" sung by a choir under there.
0045 "Miles Davis' Funeral" Morphine
0047 "Texas Funeral" Jon Wayne
0049 OM speaking, "rest in peace" heard. Not making out much more. "Let me start that over." Maildrop address heard.
0051 "Booji Boy's Funeral" Devo
0055 OM speaking, into "Freedom of Choice" Devo
0058 OFF

Reception during the Queen track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-bkyEE8QKc

Thanks for the great show!  ;D

At 00022 I could have sworn the ID was Radio Oscar. Noisy signal.

Radio Bob, boy do I suck.

Just listened to my recording of the show and it is a Radio Bob ID, have no idea where the heck Radio Oscar came from.
