Very weak  - S4 at my noise level - 222

2250 - Chuck Berry music (RIP)
2258 - ID (cw), ..."kishwaukee valley radio 73 de KVA kishwaukee valley radio"
2300 - off air

The ID was repeated several times. I thought I initially "heard" KVR as the callsign on the first announcement. Listening to the playback of the later ID (I did not record the entire transmission) it was distinctly KVA. The signal was right at my noise level and difficult at best so I am not sure on the callsign. It makes sense that it should be KVR.

New one for me. Thanks whoever for the tribute to Chuck Berry, RIP.
