0228 tune in to "Atomic Punk" by Van Halen, then into "Godzilla" and "Cities On Flame" by Blue Oyster Cult. SIO: 232
The station was off the air about 15 seconds between the two BOC songs. Off suddenly 0237 UTC.

SDR catch. 0216z sign on with music, modulation seemed a little low?  Sounded like Led Zeppelin.
Carrier off for a few seconds around 0233z.
Off at 0237z.

An S9 signal, but it "sounded" weaker than that, perhaps due to the low modulation.
