2132 Faint music, OM talking but can't decipher
2136 Can't make out what is being said but context sounds like skit
2139 Not sure if still there or under noise, seems like as sunset hit I lost reception

Interesting ID, Chris.  This is now the second 30 year plus pirate ID on frequency recently (Hope Radio Int, also)

Very weak here. At 2148z I can make out that a song is playing but unable to ID the song.
