Tuned in at 0112utc, weak/fair signal low noise some fading, hear rock ballad, just before 0121 ID by woman as "Ballsmacker Radio" followed by sound of bowling ball hitting pins, soft rock tune "here comes the rain again" by Eurythmics, Elvis singing "Kentucky rain", at 0129 Prince "purple rain", seems to be a rain themed program, at 0136 woman said "ballsmacker@protonmail.com still on at 0400utc but weaker than earlier, nice program, thanks.
