S4 unto N. Alabama at 2228 with "Cocaine" by Eric Clapton.  Thought I heard the Bee Gees "I Started A Joke", a bit later.  Still going at 2251.  Definite "Vault" ID by OM at 2259.

Report to vaultshortwave [at] gmail [dot] com was returned as "undeliverable".  Does anyone have the current e-mail address?
