SINPO:  54555

WFEA, the "Unforgettable Hits" station and longest continuously operating station in New Hampshire, came blasting through at a distance of just over 100 miles.  First I heard a song from Dan Fogelberg, and a station ID "AM 1370 WFEA".  The song "Message to Michael" by Dionne Warwick was played next.  Another station ID followed, and finally the song "Every Woman in the World" by Air Supply.
                                    

The signal was strong, and background interference could only be heard under the announcer, not under the music itself.  There was no noise and no fading.

 A short clip of the transmission with station ID can be accessed here.
(May need to increase the volume control on your computer.)

The station’s web site is linked here.

Here is a virtual screenshot of the receiver (actually an ICOM PCR-1500
with a 176' dipole and discone antenna) from Global Tuners (click to enlarge):

I sent a request for a QSL via U.S. mail on October 11, 2011.
I will post it here as soon as it arrives.
