1210 UTC OM with mentions of Cairo and Arabic accented man saying "I will not have you plundering the graves of my ancestors" and "Welcome to the tombs of my ancestors"

1220 UTC (About 15 seconds of S9 carrier and ALE burst covered the frequency)
1223 UTC (Deep fades into the noise)
1226 UTC Narrator with credits ( I missed the name of the episode, but possibly "The Adventure of the Pharaohs Staff"?)

I have them at S3 on a New Hampshire remote SDR and S5 on a New York remote SDR. Weak-ish modulation but can make an OMs voice out at 1228 UTC. Nothing heard locally, but I have a very faint S1 level carrier visible on an Indiana remote SDR as well. Bits and pieces of audio coming through.
1230 UTC - there was a significant fade up to S5-S6 on the NH SDR, and I heard "confidential investigator" and dramatic music...followed by and OM talking about Barrie Craig, America's Number One Detective...". Minor data QRM on 6767 kHz, switched to USB mode which improved readability a little bit.
1232 UTC - another fade down to threshold levels. Interesting conditions this morning.
1234 UTC - signal is now barely there, switched to NY SDR but there's worse QRM on both 6765 kHz USB and 6772 kHz USB
1236 UTC - another fade back up to S2-S3, modulation visible but very difficult copy. Can make out people talking but can't make out what's being said

1324- OM and YL talking then some music S2
