Tune in - Dance music

01:40 "Most friday nights at ?? it's Ballsmacker Radio" into Doobie Brothers' Black Water.

01:55 ID, Into CCR - Born On The Bayou.

01:59 Carrier off air, came back a few seconds later at lower strength, power/antenna change?

02:01 ID "From some wire strung up in trees, Ball Smaker Radio" Into song, 'Sweet devil's got my soul'

02:29 If I could Walk On Water, 1980s sounding track.

02:35 The Ball Smacker 6960 kilohertz AM into Abba - Waterloo.

02:37 Song starting, This is KAOS.. 80s sounding song about radio waves. Fading here, ironically.

02:42 SSTV, Ballsmacker with guys in bowling clothes and clutching balls. Followed by ID, and for listeners to recognize the theme tonight. I realize that the announcer's voice sounds a bit like Commander Bunny. Signal has dropped almost 20 db from where it was, S9+ to S3, can no longer hear modulation at 02:45. 02:46, now carrier is gone, looks like it just faded out, maybe the operator slowly reduced the power to nil?

Mostly had the frequency all to itself, except for some digital 'ticking' that sounded like a film projector sprocket sound for a few minutes, and ionosphere sounders. Good clean audio out to around 7 khz on display, possibly more, wide dynamic range, song fades were not over-amplified. Listened in SAM in wide band, 10 khz. This sounded so high fidelity and with high frequency stability, it was really locked in, according to my Kiwi on SAM in wide band, always 0.0 hz. This guy should be hired to engineer an AM broadcast station. Sounds like a real studio too, the music overlaps were good.

Short audio clip, notice the power switch at 1:52
