There's some wild selective fading, extremely rapid.  Can notice it more in AM Stereo than you can in mono, of course.
Bitte warten, Sternradio hat technische Schwierigkeiten. Der Sender raucht. Rauchen wird dich töten.

6949 AM  2236  Hard rock, change of song, off 2141. 2243 Vague talk by OM, 0045 some music & fades into static & gone.

S5.  Very noisy signal with selective fading.  After 0045 signal was very poor in noise.
