Good signal in New Hampshire, S8 - lots of long inter-tune pauses

2041z Just turned on the radio and caught a bit of the show before it ended  :(

2204z Same station back again? S6-S7, ah yes QWK ID, shout-out to RedHat
2214z "That was for you RedHat" for the last tune, QWK ID, another pause

Caught the last four minutes; sign-off at 2214 with a gravely-voiced OM announcer.  Missed the ID.
