Strong signal here with oldies like "I Gotta New Car" by Big Boy Groves S-9 +30
off suddenly during "Beep Beep" by The Playmates, at 0308. with no announcements.  Springfield, MA TIS station heard after sign off.
Strongest signal, legal or pirate, I've ever heard on 1710! Thanks to Mark Carlsen for tip.

I was listening to that in the rental car on my way through Maine, couldn't believe the audio quality and signal. I was hoping they would carry me all the way to Moncton, but when I heard the music stop, I knew they either got tired and shutdown for the night, or needed to shut down quickly for whatever reason.
Causing general trouble for more than 5 decades
