2248 music and a German language DJ
2251 Air raid sirens and Radio 48 ID
2252 Miss You, The Rolling Stones (an extended play, live concert version)
2313 Radio 48 "Solid Gold Rock and Roll" ID

Power has dropped or a deep fade. Sign on was loud and clear, then barely audible.

Thanks for the show!

Tuned in at 2259utc, fair/poor signal, hear rock music with singer yelling at times, then hear blues/rock tune, at 2304 "you keep me hanging on" by Vanilla Fudge, at 2314 "dark star falling" by Grateful Dead", Mix Radio International ID at 2322œutc, Radio 48 ID at 2326œutc and email as radio48@protonmail.com I sent an email and it hasn't bounced back as invalid yet so it's probably good.

I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires.
