Songs are identified with Shazam if needed. I usually use KiwiSDR receivers. Reception from my QTH is using a Hermes Lite 2 with a 40 meter band Inverted V at 40 feet.

Tuned in at 0202 utc on Barrington Hills IL sdr with fair/good S9+10 signal, orchestra plus choir in what sounds like a national anthem, began fading away and now barely see trace of carrier on waterfall,
Drake R8, Kenwood R-2000, Panasonic RF-4900, Sony 2010, Realistic DX440, Grundig Satellit 500, CB antenna, Mt Prospect, IL 20miles (32km) NW of downtown Chicago. I have been using online receivers because my 7mhz dipole came down in a storm and after my stroke on 3 June 2024 I can no longer get up on a ladder to fix it. Also too much neighborhood noise. williamhassig@yahoo.com

0210 strong signal here though some QSB, hard rock. Oh, I just recognized that it's Killing Joke. "Age of Greed" IIRC. Very nice. RIP Geordie.
0216 next song. Also heavy, but I don't recognize it. (Edit Per shazam it's "Absent Friends" Killing Joke. Perhaps this is a Geordie memorial show?)
...
0243 Still on, frequency has drifted up to 6938.6 AM.
0244 Now QRT. I just made it back in time, I guess.

decent carrier with somewhat faint audio in heavy static crashes

BTW, I was also hoping this was Sternradio

6938.3 AM

Booming signal here with nice audio.  Only caught the last ~11mins of the show.  Closed with anthem playing and voice quoting the last part of Churchill's Commons speech, then off at 02:43z.

Thanks!
