1855 music, 1901 ID, "On the road again", "Don't fear the reaper" (Romeo and Juliet were from Bergame!), 1909 "Get back"  :)

Hard to tell if Radio 208 is recovering from modulation anaemia, from weak propagation, or from Covid 19.

1838 typical music and slogans, noisy, 1841 Stanag coming on the channel, at same level as music.
1843 a few notes of "Star spangled banner" are not enough to make the Stanag stand by upright!

Long discussion, as I was away.

About up and down, it was about the levels of signals, going up and down much more than usually, say from quarter to quarter of an hour (each station behaving at its own pace).

About the Doppler effect, I am not sure, but the frequencies at 0.01 kHz seemed somewhat less stable, hard to tell from the usual drifting of many stations. But a 10 Hz (or more) Doppler shift would be quite unusual I think. But what can happen when there are ionized clouds/patches in the ionosphere  ? Happily, a few stations seemed quite stable, so it's not a problem with my Rx (and I use the frequencies to 0.01 as help for identifying).

Beginning of the Es season ?
Can that have effects on low HF bands? When combined with a strong normal E layer?
Also much noise on HF now (end of afternoon).
What news about the sun?
