Extremely weak here on the SDR recording, mostly just a carrier.

SDR catch

Barely above S3 noise floor here, but not bad considering the distance - using USB side of ISB mode.

02:47z 'Come Dancing' - Kinks
03:01z Off

A fairly good selection of tunes unfortunately hampered by some audio issues (squeals and distortion) during the IDs and greetz.

Here's the full hour:
