I haven't tuned in today, but the last few times I have (the latest being two evenings ago, 01 OCT c. 0200 UTC) it's been on at 5910.340 kHz, significantly off 5910 which probably accounts for the wavering you're hearing. I'm not sure if that's a purposeful change in frequency or not, since it was pretty much dead on 5910 earlier in the year, but it's been steady since I first noticed it in September.

MDK2 you are correct on the frequency HJDH was not exactly on 5910.  I checked back at 0427 UTC and it is closer to 5910.3  :)
HJDH signal is weaker now then it was at 0345. Still hearing music but pretty weak.
