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.

Extremely weak here on the SDR recording, mostly just a carrier.

SDR catch

Barely above S3 noise floor here, but not bad considering the distance - using USB side of ISB mode.

02:47z 'Come Dancing' - Kinks
03:01z Off

Band Aid Radio 6950 CUSB 02:49z-03:01z 10-24-25

Thanks BAR!

Noticed that weird siren tx was on again from 00:24z-02:03z ending near the beginning of BAR's tx.

A fairly good selection of tunes unfortunately hampered by some audio issues (squeals and distortion) during the IDs and greetz.

Here's the full hour:
