Fair to good signal mostly above the noise here with Z talking at 1415 UTC and clear ID, into music-lady singer at 1416 UTC
1424 UTC A rather off key version of a familiar song :)
1427 UTC Z with mention of a tribute to "punk singers who have passed away" Next song by Poly Styrene singer (Marianne Joan Elliott-Said) who died of breast cancer at age 53
1433 UTC Z talking about not having been on for 4 months (so this is a rebroadcast), and about Andy Walker's programs (sent out about 35 QSL's), and how much Andy appreciates the response! Also mentioned the names of some listeners who sent in reports to the mail drop address.
1455 UTC UNID punk tune man singer
1500 OFF after Channel Z jingle..."last channel you'll ever need"

Thanks for the tribute show to influential punk singers who have passed away! I was only marginally into punk music over the years, but it made a lot of folks happy! Kudos to Channel Z for the remembrance :)

EDIT:Had to look up the artist who did "People Who Died"...It was the Jim Carroll band. Jim Carroll died in 2009 at the age of 60
