Seems to be at 6949.75? Tuned in in time for Insane in the Brain.
2355 Sounds like Post Modern Juke Box stuff. Currently loungy cover of "Beat It." (BTW 6949.74 USB seems to be the sweet spot)
2357 SSTV


2358 Cypress Hill "Insane in the Brain" (there you go PSWL!)
0002 "Beat It" Michael Jackson
0006 "Thriller" Michael Jackson
0009 next song. Signal is S9 +10 here, SIO 555
0010 "Jet Airliner" Steve Miller Band
0014 "Rocky Mountain Way" Joe Walsh for a moment, then a big fade hit
