Still with only faint reception here  >:(.  However, interesting it is a 1988 broadcast, final year they were WNBC before WFAN took over 660 am frequency from 1050 am.  Change over took place just before a broadcasted Mets playoff game on October 7, 1988.

Being DST time ended late October 1988, the broadcast must be from right before DST started on April 3, 1988.
