That's a big cat. I know a woman with a 30 pounder but it doesn't have the fur.

I've got a 1935 Philco tabletop w/ an internal loop that does well in that part of the spectrum. All hollow state so there is no annoying internal noise from the radio.

Songs are identified with Shazam if needed. I usually use KiwiSDR receivers. Reception from my QTH is using an SDRPlay RSP1A for SWL with a 40 meter band Inverted V at 40 feet. Kenwood TS-570D for ham use.

I think this station must be very local to you because I can’t get a signal on any KiwiSDR now and it was very weak on any KiwiSDR I tried last night.

Not too local, I lost it after my local sunrise..  Seemed to be a limited playlist of songs on a loop from what I could tell.  Fair signal at times, a little better this morning just before sunrise, but mostly a struggle to hear at my location.

I checked a bunch more KiwiSDR’s tonight and finally found one with audio. The KU4BY KiwiSDR in Elizabeth City, NC has very weak audio. The WD3C KiwiSDR in Fair Hill, Maryland still has very weak audio but better than the other one. Music too weak for Shazam.

0329 UTC-Radio Ga Ga by Queen
0341 UTC-Take On Me by A-ha
0342 UTC-Everybody Wants to Rule the World by Tears For Fears
0347 UTC-Every Breath You Take by The Police

Occasional weak music near the noise floor. At one point it sounded like the announcer was talking for a bit.

Shug Knight should've dropped Bobby Vanderwinkle (Vanilla Ice) when he was dangling him by his ankles out a window from the offices of Death Row Records on the upper floors of a L.A. high rise. You could always say he jumped. Everyone in the office would back you. Ah, the perk's of being a gangster.
