on 6925 USB        direct
2117 music, ut.QRM, stormy
2127 ut. QRM burst, then station lost
2129 music back, 2130 even better, unknown record
2132 next (in 1980's style, sorry I'm pretty ignorant of the 80's)
and no Shazam here (Shazam for Windows available only via the Microsoft Store, and the conditions of the Microsoft Store I don't want to signup with my blood).
2138 laughings , then off?

2140 (cut it, to Joker? Radio), (no, to Skunkhole Radio !)
ALL AFTER 2140 : A DIFFERENT STATION

I had a friend who played lead guitar for Billy Ray Cyrus's band. The Great Mullet is dumber than a box of rocks. Billy Ray flirted with wrong guy's wife in a club they played regularly. Billy Ray ended up in the hospital. No one saw what happened to put him there. Odd as there were about 300 people in the place? Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

I suspect the crew of bouncer penguins that worked the door.
