2312z Channel Z radio, wants feed back.  First song by Camel.  Good signal, a little noise

Extremely faint signal w/barely perceptible music @ 2317.
May not have even noticed if not for HFU posting.
Signal is improving but not well enough to easily pick up what is being aired.
Slightly better copy in LSB to offset noise/static.
Too much noise and too little signal by 2342.  No longer able to hear anything.
