SDR recording catch, 1620.010 kHz, 0047-0200 UTC.

Sounds like country music instead of MoR this evening.

Heard that as well, battling with Cuba's 1620kHz, 0135UTC, while on the drive home from work on the truck stereo. Didn't recognize the artist, but certainly county.
“I am often asked how radio works. Well, you see, wire telegraphy
is like a very long cat. You yank his tail in New York and he
meows in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? Now, radio is
exactly the same, except that there is no cat.”
-Attributed to Albert Einstein, but I ripped it from the latest Splatter .PDF March 2025 issue.
