I tuned in and heard an advertisement for Jim Ellis Chevrolet in Atlanta (read by Scott Slade), followed by Greg McClure giving the traffic report, sponsored by Mattress Firm. The Atlanta weather report was next. WSB's station ID was clearly given. The financial call-in show with Dave Ramsey followed.
The signal was strong and generally consistent with minimal background interference from other stations, but the signal faded to a small extent over the course of the reception. I have listened to WSB on several evenings, and it’s always consistently there.

A short clip of the transmission with station ID can be accessed here.

I sent a request for a QSL via U.S. mail on September 22, 2011.
I will post it here as soon as it arrives.
