Heard on SDR in Central Germany, also Weston, SW England SDR. Poor conditions today, seemingly "Arctic flutter" on Jennifer's signal and others.
Signal weak and very rapid fading.
Usual mixed music format.
Closed down 1120 UTC.

{Edit} Looking again, the flutter was probably due to Jennifer being marginal groundwave to one of the SDRs. My mistake. But conditions are poor.

1705 UTC: Sounded like a "Radio England" jingle. But clearly the station isn't in England.
1709 UTC: It's "Smooth Jazz", from an online stream.

0023z, another monochrome SSTV pic of Lemmy in Scotty2 mode. Announcement before pic sounded like 'Powerhouse Radio'?

Jennifer has moved up to 6555. I emailed the op. In his reply he said he was moving up because he realised the original freq was a bit close to Shanwick ATC.

Still S7 to S9 on NW Irelnd sdr. It's a horrible frequency though. STANAG just a few Kcs up and Pyongyang fading in at times.
