Listening via Northern Idaho SDR, as the signal's not audible up here near Seattle ...

0118 UTC: "The Big Welcome" by WASP
0119 UTC: "Inside the Electric Circus" by WASP
0123 UTC: YL synth voice with inaudible ID
0124 UTC: "Rock You Like a Hurricane" by Scorpions
0129 UTC: "You Give Love a Bad Name" by Bon Jovi
* * * *
0144 UTC: Electric Circus Shortwave ID in OM synth voice, along with shoutout to pirate radio forums (including HFU), followed by email address given in YL synth voice
0145 UTC: "Kiss Me Deadly" by Lita Ford (some interference from peskies or other source heard now)
0149 UTC: Announcement, then off
* * * *
0158 UTC: Hearing the signal now on 4090 USB with rock, then same synth ID and email announcements at 0159 UTC. Harder to hear down on this frequency, however, due to static and noise.
0204 UTC: Now listening via Burke, Virginia, which has a better signal on 4090. Playing "Mama We're All Crazee Now" by Quiet Riot.
0207 UTC: Male synth ID announcement, then YL email announcement.

SDR recording catch.

0103 Sign on, very weak. "Livin' On A Prayer". SIO 111/222 ?
0111 Circus type music
0114 Signal shot up to SIO 444, more circus type music.
0118 ID by YL, back to the circus related programming
0123 Super weak again, I could faintly hear the YL with a presumed ID
0134 Back to SIO 444 with "I'll Wait"
0149 OM said moving to 4080.
