0305 was out with the family but now home. Hard ambient sort of music right now.
0336-0338 was out of the room briefly, came back and it's apparently off. It had been nothing but uninterrupted spacey ambient music with occasional numbers station samples for half an hour. Didn't get to hear a sign off, and to be honest I'm wondering if that was RFW.

EDIT - reviewed the SDR recording this morning (where it's currently 1315z), and RFW was copyable from sign on to sign off. Very nice comrades! Thank you for the show.
