1724 Very weak audio, music? Then an OM speaking.
1828 Slightly better now, maybe SIO 222.
2201 Off - thank you for the music!  It was up to SIO 444 by this time, btw.

Excellent reception, using PL-880 on front porch with just its whip - sounds like local am.

2153z Unid Hard Rock song, OM lead singer
2200z Off
Thanks for program!

Oh, was that another homer that just landed that Mr. Price gave up?  Surprised he isn't on the DL for a twisted neck having to look at the outfield fence so often -  ;)
