Strong at S8 or so, but low modulation making for a difficult copy.  Heard a couple of clear IDs though.  Sounds like a retrospective of Boomer's career - I wish I could hear the monologue better.  Off at 2209z

Off air recording: 6925 KHz WKND 23DE12 2149-2209 UTC.mp3

My last logging of WKND was December 17th, 1989 on 1620 KHz!!!

WKND doing well in NH on 6924.6 AM, lots of QSB S4-S9+ and mostly staying above the noise - getting 100%

2153z "I'm a dog in America"
2159z "...end-of-the-year report..."

2203z Signal down to only S6 peaks, still good copy though
2207z "...just wanted to get on the air and have a little fun today...
2209z Off, thanks Boomer!

Really pleased to finally log WKND.  Boomer talking about some kind of dog show ("doggy woggy" something or other) in Pittsburgh at 2159 UTC.  ID at 2159, WKND, "We're Canine Dog".  S7 signal in NY.  At 2203 Boomer talking about trying to get his legal name changed.
