S3-S5 signal heard via the Fair Hill, Maryland, SDR with some fading ...

2313 UTC: "All Night Long" by Lionel Richie.
2314 UTC: Sounded like a male-voiced ID said twice during the song.
2316 UTC: Sounds like the voice is saying "Art Bell is back."
2317 UTC: "Down Under" by Men at Work. Now the AI-generated Art Bell voice is commenting on the lyrics during the song.
2320 UTC: "Art Bell" is commenting at times as the song ends and then continues, talking about his fax machine, drinking strong coffee, and more. There's some strong peskie interference in the background.
2323 UTC: Off?

I can see the signal in the waterfall and I can barely hear music or speaking...but, not very loud. Just not getting the signal down here. Thanks for the show.
The signal quickly got better and it's very clear. Nice tune at the moment. The show sounds much better and is easy to kick back and enjoy. Again, thanks for the broadcast.
