Weak from NL SDR, 1950s song I can't quite place and too weak to hear the words, next couple of songs are 50s too but can only make out bass line. Little bit better from Wessex UK SDR which is usually best S/N but still down in the noise.

Big into SWDX late 70s through early 90s, then forgot about it and when I returned via SDRs it wasn't at all what I remembered, but I'll deal with it. Grumble, grumble. All SDRs acknowledged, nothing is from my own radio.

I think it may be Zeppelin good in east spain SDR
Listening to Short and Medium Wave broadcasts since 1962 as a DXer. Nowadays I listen to 48 and 49 meters mainly for interesting stations. If you like to send me an EQSL my email is bkavana@yahoo.com

Thanks, I saw the 6940 entry from earlier but it was a few hours ago so didn't know if it might be the same, and I don't know if there was a positive ID there. Now they're playing 500 Miles from whoever that Scottish group was from a few years ago.
