Don't know if it's just my local conditions but the audio is very distorted.
When he first came on air it was perfect, but now awful.

01:18 audio distortion is gone but signal dropped down to S7 from an earlier S9.

S9 +10 here playing various music.  ID @ 0105z.
Started out with blues 'Early in the Morning' by Snooky Pryor & Mel Brown

Using a wider filter (6khz+) may get rid of the received distortion.  Nice audio here.

0133z - S9 with more Snooky Pryor harmonica - 'Bury You in a Paper Sack'
0137z  - Snooky Pryor - 'In This Mess'

Thanks for the show!
