DXVoyager:
0234: sounds like hit countdown followed by Beatles "Get Back"
0241: Higher & Higher"
Reasonable signal but bad static here.
MrMomB:
02:36 Get back. Deep fades. S-7/8 in WNY
ChrisLobdell:
0236 DJ was the very popular Tony Blackburn with an ID
0239 BBC ID mentions of World Radio Club.
0240 repeat of show?

Seems to be a show from 1969 judging from the music, very solid into Milford PA SDR. Poor signal into Wessex UK SDR, which I checked since after all the program originated in the UK :)
