Hearing it here too, moderate to good signal a little fading but overall good copy; after 9pmcst faded into the noise disappointing.

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.
