on 6860 USB
2231 music, QRM from usual Asian 6865 AM,
2233 next track, 2235 a fade, gone ?

on 6851 USB
2241 Elvis? ?  "Little girl" ?
2245 "Some girls" or "I'd rather be with you", hard to hear with UT close on the low side

on 6852 USB
2253 oldie, 2255 "I love you I need you"?, 2258 next
2305 Stevie Wonder, more oldies that I don't know
2316 "Satisfaction"  ... 2322 "Denis" (not Blondie), 2324 Elvis "Are you lonesome tonight"
2332 "Eleanor Rigby"  ...

2340 oldie, 2341 (I call that 'anorak' music because it was played on the European offshore stations)
2344 "I'll never find another you"' ... 2351 "Poison Ivy"
2358 strong noisy UT right on the passand, looking on a waterfal : 6870 is free (or 6865 on another)
