Hearing two sets of QSOs on 4747 kHz USB, 4.747 MHz USB 4747.0 USB, very thick Scottish accents, also heard Arabic language, then somebody (in English) said "uh, Mike Alpha Romeo?!" (with a thick accent).  Possibly three groups of folks on frequency at once.  Received via Wessex UK SDR (SW UK) G8JNJ SDR at 2200 UTC (tune in time) now the frequency is clear just past 2206 UTC / 2207 UTC.

Interesting log! Hearing Arabic and what sounds like English but too heavily accented to understand at the Northwest Ireland KiwiSDR.

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.
