Occasional bursts of dance-type music heard around 0128.

Signal is fair at S6, but heavy band noise and some fading making for a tough catch. The music is clear enough to be identified but DJ voice is mostly indecipherable.

0130 Old-time relay? London W7 mailing address heard ("Offshore Echoes" magazine) followed by 60s dance music.
0133 "18 Yellow Roses," Bobby Darin
0135 Merlin, Ontario maildrop address then "What'cha Gonna Do About It," Doris Troy
0137 ID Laser Hot Hits then "Little Things," Bobby Goldsboro
0140 "Love's Made a Fool of You," Bobby Fuller Four

0146 "How Can We Hang On To a Dream," Tim Hardin

0150 "The Love Machine," Elvis

0201 Another LHH ID and Merlin maildrop then "My Old Car," Lee Dorsey
0204 "Sunny Girl," Hep Stars
0209 "Remember Then," Sha Na Na (a few bars) then "People Get Ready," The Impressions
0212 Laser Hot Hits ID then "He Was Really Saying Somethin'," The Velvelettes. Noise seems to have died down a bit.

Tuned in just in time to hear end of "Anode Current," Die Form at 2150. Then sign off in English and German with E-mail address at 2152 followed by "NSK," Laibach. OFF at 2156.

Signal was S9+20 and seemed to be 15 kHz or more wide!

Late logging from last night...

I heard from 0035 ("All I Can Do," The Cars) to end of transmission. Good quality broadcast, 10 kHz wide signal, low noise, 10 over S9 and moderate fading. Noise increased a bit near the end but still good reception.

0135 "You may now turn to another frequency. There's nothing left here."

Brief pause, then YL with announcements about MW test broadcasts beginning at 0200. Transmission mode switched to USB for final 2.5 minutes or so of broadcast.

Thanks for this broadcast and the MW test!

OFF at 1850

Heard a version of "Yakety Yak" interspersed with snippets of Joe Biden speech, and multiple Truth Radio IDs before sign off. Signal was a noisy S4 or 5 here and very tough to copy.

S5 at best, way down in the noise, sounds like a guided meditation or relaxation tape with YL voice and music.
Gone at 2043.
