1818 Now up to good reception, fades disappearing, OM singer
1820 Reception now very good with fades but can't ID tune
1822 ID but lost it in a fade, OM "You are listening to....."
1823 Janet Jackson but can't ID
1825 Reception now best in past half hour, excellent
1829 OM singer - reception varying widely, very clear to under floor
1837 "It's A Sin" Pet Shop Boys, reception still up and down
1847 "Sprockets has been brought to you by the Pirate Relay Radio League."  to SSTV
1853 SSTV's continuing
