Sounds like a very weak music beat and some peskies.
0139: Peskies seems gone with some EDM. Signal is stronger now.
0156: Signal went from being unintelligible to readable. Signal is AM and Captain Morgan Shortwave ID.

Just like Pigmeat said.

0218: Off for good I believe.

Sounds like Van Morrison, but the signal has taken a nosedive.

At first I thought it was Partial India Radio moving up, the carrier looked the same on the waterfall. But the fat AM sound gave it away as something else. Captain Morgan's transmitter has very distinctive sound.

Partial India Radio used to be transmitted via an amped up boat anchor that made Sanjay and Harold sound like Shiva and Brahma echoing off Mount Meru? I was a bit disappointed those scamps didn't have that big sound last night, by Vishnu.
