2220 Rock music just above noise floor.
2227 OM, "...Talk about whatever you want Wally...", weather report? telephone call? Poor copy.  :(

Good to hear XLR8! Thanks

2242 traces of audio here. Hope you either stay on late, or take a break and resume later. Say, around 0200 UTC. :)
2315 rising a bit above the noise floor at times.
0111 it's been up and down, sometimes not copyable at all, but currently hearing some nice creepy music. I did hear an XLR8 ID about an hour ago, but didn't note the exact time. It may have been before 0000.
0148 turned off the noise blanker, and suddenly I have a S6 signal! Currently playing "Launderette" by Vivien Goldman
        If you're taking requests, how about "Shit From an Old Notebook" by Minutemen? Please and thank you!
0155 something japanese per Shazam, bassline kinda reminiscent of "She's Lost Control"
0159 XLR8 ID
0200 "She Said Destroy" Interference
0251 I think this is "Paranoid Chant" by Minutemen
0252 XLR8 ID. Possibly off the air after that, nothing heard afterward.

35353 in Wyomissing.

The noise seems to be increasing or the signal is lessening.  Whatever; it's more difficult to hear at 2317 than at 2309.
