S5 @ 0100 with blues tune.  Audio slightly overdriven.
0108 - "Blow Wind Blow" The Jimmy Rodgers All Stars
0125 - "Big Fine Girl" Jimmy Witherspoon
0128 - off or faded here, still see a slight trace on the waterfall so probably faded

Thanks for the show!

Noted from 0045 sign on, on the SDR recording. Weak for the first minute or two, then the signal came up, but the audio was terribly distorted, over modulated, the entire transmission, unfortunately.
This was actually in DSB mode! When tuned in SSB, it sounded very good.
Off at 0136.
