Faint here, SINPO=23322

027- Rapid beat dance music with YL singing. IDed as "Knocking 2.0."
032- "Give Me Back My Man" by the B-52s. (Signal improving!)
035- Station ID.
035- "Private Idaho" also by the B-52s.
039- "Rock Lobster" also by the B-52s.
044- "Our Lips are Sealed" by the Go Gos. (Signal getting lost under fading and adjacent QRM)
046- "We Got the Beat" also by the Go Gos.
049- YL talking I believe, then off.
