Fairly good listenable signal but fadey. Possibly the best reception yet here! 
Song times were when I shazam'd them (UTC -4).....some ALE blast QRM
Clear ID's between songs...something I don't usually hear!

2248 UTC Sounds like Alan Maxwell. Signal is right at noise floor level, but I'm certain this is an episode of Voice of the Illuminati
