It’s unlikely I’ll go through the trouble of tuning my shortwave receiver just to recreate the experience.

Been listening since 0045 UTC to the usual mix of tunes my ears have not encountered previously...keep 'em coming XLR8! Signal was only S4 earlier, but up to S7 at 0115 UTC. Sounding really good now through the stereo! NRD now on timer so I can listen and read myself to sleep to the sounds of "Accelerate"

0105 UTC A kind of angry sounding fast thump thump tune fading in well above the noise

Thanks for the tip Chris! S9+ here with a little funky R&B at 2211 UTC
Superb audio but unfortunately off abruptly at 2213 UTC
2220 UTC Back on again
2224 UTC Off
2231 UTC On..... An R&B rap tune by OM
2235 UTC At the end of the 2231 UTC song, something was said then OFF. May have been part of a rap tune(or maybe just the pesky on LSB bleeding through)

Signal is at or just above noise floor here with occasional S2 peaks since tune in at 2000 UTC. Mostly man announcer chatting, mostly poor copy.
2008 UTC "Ghostbusters"-Ray Parker Jr.
2041 UTC Signal still just above the noise here with occasional S3 peaks. Erratic fading...
2049 UTC Man giving frequencies...maybe Hobart op?
2050 UTC Barbara Streisand tune
2058 UTC Clear "Radio Spaceshuttle" ID by OM
2100 UTC OFF
Better reception today than the other 2 times I've logged this

Another entertaining evening with Johnny Tobacco at the cigar microphone!
Johnny was digging into the old 45's this evening while discussing the subject of cucarachas and Cuban cigars! S8 signal most of the last hour and a half here.
0204 UTC "Que Sera Sera"
0230 UTC Johnny needs some sleep and says Good Night, then plays "All Along the Watchtower"-Jimi Hendrix!!! How did that 45 get into the pile
Then follows it with Hey Joe...must be Jimi night at the Abu Dhabi residence
Off at 0236 UTC
