Carrier of fairly decent signal strength copyable here, but no modulation to speak of, unfortunately.

Flute music (maybe Native American,) Few words (unintelligible), barely audible.  Signal came up enough at 0123 to hear an WDOG ID and into rock music ... then faded down.

S7 but noisy and fading in and out making a poor signal.

Hello WDOG Crew,

I  received your station in Belgium with a poor signal strength.
Here is my report:

Overall merit: 1 
MY RECEIVER:  Perseus SDR
ANTENNA: Dipole 22.8 metres long
PROGRAMME DETAILS AND REMARKS:
-   At 01.08 the song ‘In the jungle the mighty jungle’ by The Tokens.
-   At 01.21  your program brought ‘Let’s twist again’ after this song I heard female talks: “….Radio…..”
-   At 01.35 I recognized the song: ‘Locomotion‘.
-   At 01.37 I heard ‘Oh Boy’ from Buddy Holly

On this link on the internet: https://app.box.com/s/w7i7lb957bfe2j6djxnmcumeqb8f2oqx  you can listen to a short mp3 recording of the broadcast I heard.
In this audio recording first you can hear a fragment of the song ‘In the jungle the mighty jungle’ After 40 seconds you can hear the song ‘Let’s twist again’ and the female talks. After 1 minute and 12 seconds the song ‘Locomotion and after 2 minutes and 10 seconds the song ‘Oh boy’ from Buddy Holly.

I hope that you recognized it was WDOG I heard!

I live in Veurne. That’s in the western part of Belgium, It’s  a little village, 15 Km from the France frontier and 10 Km from the North Sea coast (=51°1’ 56”N – 2°40’36”E)
