2226  About 30 dB above the noise.  An eclectic collection of songs.  Not distorted, but seems to suffer from too narrow a bandwidth.  35443 in Wyomissing.

2232 UTC Just tuned in, but signal is right at the noise floor. OM with ID, into unid song
2235 UTC Signal picked up a bit...unid Christmas tune...audio sounds much better using the 3.5 khz filter as opposed to the 6 khz filter.
2240 UTC OM with ID, followed by YL singers then sudden off

Watching a het since 2227.  Cam up at 2230 with some mellow rock then into "Merry Christmas baby" (blues), ID then dropped out leaving a tiny inaudible het.

S5 when it was in.
