Guess who's broadcasting with the request. The Big 8 and 70s TV series S.W.A.T. theme heard ;D Thanks Q

Getting weak audio from 'The Big Q', identified elsewhere, playing oldies.
SINPO=25332
(Thanks for posting, BDM-- alerted me to turn the radio back on!)
First time reception for me. Peaking around S-4 here.

SDR recording catch. Sign on at 0601z with ID, CKLW references heard at 0625z. The signal seemed to be much weaker compared to recent receptions, I hope it was just conditions. The terrible summer-like static crashes didn't help either! Fast forward to 0630z and the signal peaked back up to a normal S7, so I guess MW conditions were just flaky.

Also plenty of fast fading which wasn't helping. I noticed this on most local (within 800 miles) upper MW stations last night so it was poor conditions for that band last night. Even Celestial was down and mostly not heard which also is a good indicator.

Here is a small vid clip of the broadcast. Thanks Q and a thanks to all pirate broadcasters for the shows.
