Tantalizingly close to copy on few peaks close to S7.
00:44 utc sirens?  still mostly S5-S6 with med - fast fades in and out.
00:45 - 00:49 utc  OP talking - male & female? - still can't make it out.

Remained UNID for me to sign off at  ~1:00 utc

It was very strong here. BTW, the Vietnam-era Radio First Termer tape has been circulating through the SW pirate scene for at least 30 years. I've heard it relayed a number of times over the past 20 years. Two of the recent stations to have relayed it were Outhouse Radio and WEAK. Definitely an interesting station.

<Later> I had company and just checked out the recording that I made. This was not a relay of Radio First Termer....it was a several-minute-long promo for Radio First Termer Iraq (a later project of his) + techno music + a segment on particle physics (from an English station?) + a CBC webcast segment + the ending of a webcast from Radio Lingua...and then maniacal laughter (as mentioned by ETM71).

I haven't heard any stations that just used a mish-mash of segments from webcasting stations. Huge signal with very little interference.
Thanks for the show!

It's a tragedy we only have a copy of one of Dave Rabbit's shows; he did at least a month of shows in 1971, running his signal through the Armed Forces Vietnam Radio Network after they shut down for the night (but left the transmitters running.) Soviet teenagers used to do similar tricks on the internal Soviet shortwave network in the 1970s; playing pirated rock music and jazz for a few hours after midnight. Very few were caught.
