2204 OM w/ ID and talk - mostly unintelligible with high noise level. Something about "another radio station for kids here" - rest unintelligible between noise and background.  Music, ID, "radio station' then a variety of names repeated, 2217 - improved reception 34343 - atmospheric instrumental music, wound down and off 2229.

Started out poorly and improved after 2217 to poor - fair.
