I tuned in at 0153 UTC just as Stevie Wonder’s “You Are the Sunshine of My Life” started, followed by an older song, and then a Mix Radio ID into “Never Have to Say Goodbye Again.” That seemed to be the last song before signoff when it ended right about 0200 UTC.

The signal was good against a low noise floor, albeit with noticeable fading.
