Been hearing classic pop and rock just under the noise for awhile, when suddenly emerges (SINPO=23222 at peaks):

2310- "Jack and Diane" by John Mellencamp.
2313- Recorded OM station ID.
2314- "Le Freak" by CHIC.
2318- "50 Ways To Leave Your Lover" by Paul Simon.

2338- "Wouldn't It Be Good" by Nik Kershaw. (Signal dipped a bit after Paul Simon, or music was lower, but back stronger now, SINPO=33322 at peaks).
2341- OM, recorded ID "This, is the Vault!"
2342- "Cuba" by Gibson Brothers.
2345- "Ha! Ha! Said The Clown" by Manfred Mann.
2347- Recorded OM station ID.
2347- "Love Me Two Times" by The Doors.
2351- "Father and Son" by Cat Stevens (tougher copy due to soft melody).

Always very cool to catch The Vault from across The Pond...Thanks for the show Vault Keeper!
