SDR recording catch

I noticed several carriers on the SDR recording, circa 0430-0500 UTC. Generally weak, but occasionally some audio.  Here is a recording of one of them, 0449 UTC, with an OM speaking. I am not sure of the language, but I often hear Greek pirates in this frequency range: https://www.radiohobbyist.org/blog/mypics/1740.1-AM-04.49.41.mp3
