Very loud S7-S8 signal with good audio but some fading heard via the Lodi, New York, SDR ...

0037 UTC: "Musik zum Verlieben" by Gunter Kallmann Choir.
0039 UTC: Orchestral music that Shazam's not IDing for me.
0041 UTC: "Mas Que Nada" by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66.
0044 UTC: Start of a "Richard Diamond, Private Detective" old-time radio episode (one of my favorite radio series!). This is similar to the UNID station on 6955 USB about 24 hours ago.
0058 UTC: The "Richard Diamond, Private Detective" episode continues, but I have to go walk our dog now!
* * * * *
0230 UTC: Weak to fair audio heard among the noise at the Northern Utah SDR out west here. Female narrator reading a book on tape now playing.
0246 UTC: Robotic voice saying this was part of a book on tape, then WDEF ID.
0248 UTC: Light jazz instrumental music.

Thanks for the music and radio dramas, WDEF!
