0757 anorak music, then pops and DJ, usual frequency and voice of R. Merlin
0816 long talking about Radio Caroline,
(but I'm fighting against a local noise, roaring every 66 kHz everywhere in the SW, that's a PSU from neighbours)

0830 still talking, unusually long for Merlin, then music, rock.
0834 ID, but announcing 6-3_oh-5, duo talking, 0836 music


last heard 0954 (1036 gone)
