Very good reception, French service - some over modulation

2030 Time pips, IS, to OM in French
2040 Music transitions that YL speaks over
2046 YL continues talking, frequently over instrumental music snippets
2053 OM talking with YL, modulation getting worse

Just by the languages they were using, perhaps the call for prayer was intended for Western Europe and Northwest Africa?

Good to see they reverted to their standard modulation quality as the day progressed.
