I hear this! About s4 at the bunker with moderate fades. Good to have weekday evening show. Thank you comrade!

Still hanging in there at 00:50! Been listening the whole time while making dinner.

Wow! Still loud and clear at 01:36. Not really moving my meter much but I can hear it just fine because the band is so clear and quiet.

Tuned in at 0038utc, moderate signal but with much static, song "time of the season", at 0043utc song "so happy together(?)".
If it wasn't for all the atmospheric static this would be nice listening. I haven't heard these tunes in years. Song "bus stop."
At 0116 J Airplane "somebody to love."

Sorry I missed what seems like a delightful program.  Tuesday night tornado nearby, marcoburst just down the road knocked power (thus water) out for 36 hours.  The batteried radios worked, but we fled to a location with water and without radios. Four am this morning, on what is Mrs. CT Yankee's birthday, power returned - I told her it was her present  ;)!
