Making it into the Thumb of Michigan just barely, but the clean audio helped make this readable despite the weak signal.

Thanks for the show Redhat!

    4185/AM X-FM Radio ID at :22 between songs, sounded like it was
       the usual great audio, but weak to the point I couldn’t really
       tell for sure, but hey, if the modulation weren’t so good it
       probably wouldn’t have been so easy to understand!
          "Metric" ending at :27 w/outtro and ID and mention of NYE
       and email at :29, and read my FRN report before going back
       to music.
          3+543+3+ 0520-0540 1/Jan SDRplay +SDRuno +randommwire
                                                            --Zichi MI2
DXing *either* from:
MI -- South Central Lower Michigan with a 25 m randomwire and a LOT of local noise!
or
MI2 -- the tip of Michigan's Thumb with a 100 metre longwire and much quieter conditions.  Radios can be either an SPR-4 or IC-R71A or SDRplay

QSLs appreciated! radioguy73@gmail.com
