5/24/12, 6925 AM, 0116z: Huge local RFI, but occasionally hearing some whistling music including "Michael Row the Boat Ashore" and some bluesy stuff with harmonica.  Only heard partial ID.
0135z: Sign off ID for Radio Ronin Shortwave after song with autotuned vocals.

Considering the S7 local RFI and indoor antenna, probably a pretty fair signal.
