It's down in the noise, barely audible, but there's a station there playing music.

I had a carrier a long time and I would bet I did hear Paul Hardcastle's 19 at 0052 utc.

(And apparently even the carrier was from some other station because it is still on, just weaker)

ID heard at 0252 on the SDR recording. Continued to see the carrier and hear music until just before 0310 when the carrier went off, maybe this is when RTN moved to 4 MHz.
