0126 UTC Carrier here with bits and pieces of piano music coming through
0130 UTC Hmmm...thought I heard an OM in Spanish
0134 UTC Vocal tune coming through now...signal is about S3 and mostly at noise level
0137 UTC Sounded like a YL speaking, then OFF...hmmm

Listened back several times on the recording and the sign off might be an OM...the spoken word at 0130 UTC sounds Espanol, but copy is tough through the QRN here..

Music here as well, someone singing, SIO 322.

Here are two IDs I was able to extract from my SDR recording:

0137- hearing this also but buried in the noise tough copy

Chris...in the second clip I heard "National" clearly two times. You had a better reception than I did.

i ran both files through soundforge with sound soap and cleaned it up a bit but i could manipulate these recordings much better if i had the raw I/Q file.
in my opinion, it sounds like someone speaking in a different language, perhaps spanish, especially on the second MP3 clip.
Chris, can you provide me the raw I/Q file ?

Yes, I agree that it's Spanish, and there's likely a four letter callsign at the beginning of the clip.

The I/Q files are 2 GB each, so not really practical to share. I could play around with the demodulation settings and see if I can clean things up a bit more.

since im really curious about this, can you possibly "cut" the I/Q files in an audio program (but save as the same format) to a much smaller manageable file size at a specific time within the I/Q file where the signal is the best and clear ?
im not sure if you could do that though, it will depend on the sample format, sample bit rate and the software you use.
i have alot of software at my disposal that can manipulate I/Q files.

Both audio clips, plus what I heard last night are almost certainly Spanish and in the second audio clip, I hear the words "Republica Dominicana". Hmmm
