Excellent reception, tuned in late - almost sounds like a repeat of previous broadcast(s)
1505 Same YL as previously cited giving weather report but of previous days ("....on the 20th.......for the 21st....")
1507 Not sure with her heavy accent but sounded like it might be last broadcast - however, concluded with "see you tomorrow"
1508 "Cape Town" Sides
1509 "Night After Night" Lvly
1513 "En La Maņana" Don Dirty & 2LM
1515 Off midsong

Excellent reception.  Confused why dated transmission continues daily, a winner finished 3 weeks ago (https://www.dickson-constant.com/en/news/1036/) - there might be stragglers but why not update weather for them?

1500 Repeat of recent transmissions, YL with personal messages and weather for Nov 19
1507 YL "See you tomorrow" into previously cited songs
1515 Off midsong
