Title: RADIO 48 6880 USB 0037 12 SEP 2020
Post by: ✠ Blue Max on September 12, 2020, 0037 UTC: New age-type music? Solid S9+ into the National Capital Region, then dropped a bit but still S7.

0041 YL announcer says, "Live from the West Coast, Mood Lounge Chill Out Radio"
0045 Air raid sirens until 0047 - not very chill???
0048 Shazam says this is "Strawberry Letter 23," Shuggie Otis
0051 YL announcer with "Radio 48" ID
0054 "Mix Mix Mix" - possible relay

Thanks for the program!

Here's how it sounded at my QTH:
