Listening via the Northern Utah SDR ...

0234 UTC: Theme song from "Bonanza" is playing, but there's also a really annoying interference sound.
0235 UTC: Sounds like somebody might be talking on the mic, but the interference is still very noisy.
0236 UTC: Music again.
0237 UTC: Off?
* * * * *
Listening via the SDR in Dauphin, Manitoba, which as an S7ish signal and good audio amid the clacking interference noise and a bit of fading ...

0240 UTC: Back on with female host talking, then "As Tears Go By" by The Rolling Stones.
0242 UTC: Female-spoken Band Aid ID into a new song, then off?
