Music in progress at tune-in, S4 and poor to fair copy with ute QRM.
0054 - moved down to 6954, clear of the QRM now but too weak to copy much here, other than being able to tell it is music.
0059 - shazam says "Playgirl" by Ladytron
0100 - OM announcer, then "Keep Me Hanging On" Kim Wilde
0105 - "Bizarre Love Triangle" New Order
0112 - back down in the noise now

Thanks for the show

I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com
