I started hearing this at about 1441 UTC, with a weak carrier.  The sun was just up.

By 1448 UTC the sun was up higher and the signal at S4 or so, could hear it was music but not ID the song.

1450 UTC signal was about S5 and could ID the song as DOn't You Want Me, by the Human League.

1455 UTC signal was S6 and very clear.  Shout outs to Token and ByteBORG.  Email addy sent.

Best heard at this location in USB. (What I did hear)
Barely above the noise at times.

IMHO, This was no "penny ante" reception, considering the frequency, time of day
and a myriad of other conditions. This ones a keeper!!!

1451 - Hearing music on frequency - what a welcome surprise
          Don't You Want Me Baby - Human League
1456 - Positive ID by OM as: "Radio Sluwe Vos. Radio Sly Fox"
           OM gave shoutouts to listeners in the USA - Thank You!!
1457 - OM gave E Mail address
1515 - World of Confusion

Was not able to hear on 15.890 kHz.

Thank You Sly One!
