0133 vague music

S7, although barely audible.

About 0140 there were a series of musical sounds which were not making sense as sound, but were making images in the waterfall - spiders, faces, etc.  No words I saw.  Similar to Easypal waterfall images.  I managed to get a couple of screen shots, but I'm using an unfamiliar computer and they pasted to a clipboard without memory, so lost all of them.  Really interesting.

Unusual broadcast.
