Good, but occasionally fading, in western New York, SINPO = 43233

Sorry, Captain, but the signal is not strong enough to Shazam the song titles tonight. Also I am getting this best on 6933.90, though it keeps needing adjustment

First noted 0203z with music.  At 0205z weird sound effects, followed by this identifiocation:  "This is Captain Morgan Short Wave" (man's voice), folllowed by the same with a woman's voice. Seemed to go off, but a minute later it comes back with more eclectic music. 0216z "Gonna Ball Tonight",then a song maybe titled "Higher,Higher"? 0220z Another Captain Morgan ID.
