It's 2320 as I post this but I've been tuned in for a while. Middle Eastern music without announcements, and a signal that has been steadily improving, currently a solid SIO 333 . Schedule shows SOH and Chinese jamming, obviously not either. Denge Welat scheduled for 0500 UTC broadcast, but this doesn't really sound like them at all, either. WRMI has used this frequency for various things but their schedule is completely blank, plus they would have ID'd at the top of the hour but there was none.

A very good signal here as well, with non stop music.

I believe what you might have been receiving, here with excellent reception right now, is Radio Herwa International relayed by WRMI.
Tecsun H501x (broadcast received on this unless noted), Zenith T/O G500, Zenith T/O Royal 7000, Emerson AR-176, Zenith 8S154, T/O 7G605 (Bomber), Tecsun PL-600, Tecsun PL-880, Zenith 5S320, Realistic DX 160 using 40 feet of copper wire.  With apologies to Senator Gramm for his thoughts on firearms, "I have more radios than I need but not as many as I want."

As noted, there was no ID at the top of the hour at 2300. It could be WRMI, the signal was good enough to be, but missing a station ID at the top of the hour would have been very usual for them.
