I tuned in at about 10PM. I heard the end of a song, the WJMK jingle ("The Greatest Hits of the 60s and 70s, 104.3 WJMK!") then Aretha Franklin. I tuned in for that little bit, so my friend could hear what was going on, as he couldn't get the stream as well. I will try it again this morning, may be different. I will update it on here when I try.
Update: The stream page is there, and keeps buffering. It stops buffering, then for a couple seconds, it is saying it is playing the stream at 64kbps. Is this what you were getting?
