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.

Weak reception overall directly here near Seattle; S7ish signal via the KFS SDR in Half Moon Bay, California, with good audio at the signal peaks but lots of QRM from a ute on the frequency ...

0306 UTC: "I Don't Wanna Stop" by Ozzy Osbourne. That data QRM is annoying!
0308 UTC: "Spanish Train" by Chris de Burgh.
0313 UTC: Male announcer with ID, then "Little Lies" by Fleetwood Mac.
0317 UTC: "Go for Soda" by Kim Mitchell.
0320 UTC: Male-voiced ID and, I think, an email address.
0321 UTC: "Foil" by "Weird" Al Yankovic.
0323 UTC: Off.

FYI, the suspected email address of bandaidradio@gmail.com isn't working, so it must be something else.
