Is that you Blue Ocean Radio? Signal and content is consistent with a B.O.R. show for me. (s6 just above noise)
Thanks for the show comrade!

Okay at 04:13 I just heard its Cool AM Radio/Blue Ocean Radio.

I hope my audio sounds that good. Very nice and wide with excellent bass.

"Pirating with Cumbre" plug at 0422.

OM live break at 0501 backselling and frontselling the blues songs. (nice to hear a live person on besides me)

another live break at 0527 talking about the various tracks.

ID (Cool AM Promo) at 0534 and live intro of the next song.

Live break at 0552 talking about a job opportunity? Something about a giveaway with a trivia question. 916-278-5299 number given to call for trivia question.

live break at 0619 and intro to next song. Sounds like 60s rock.

ID at 0622

"Cool AM relayed by Blue Ocean Radio ID" at 0628

0632 "you are listening to Mick Wagners Blues Party"...various album talk. Signal came up a bit. With a preamp on it's at +20!

0645 BOR/Cool AM ID

0713 Still going strong. I'm gonna keep listening but I'm starving. Gots to fix me a DXing snack.

0727 Sounds like a final BOR/Cool AM ID and BOR is QRT Awesome show again! Thanks for using USB so I could hear it!

Fair signal here using USB and the notch filter on the NRD-525.  Switched to the KX3 with external speakers and the sound processing and much more recognizable as blues with guitar riffs.

Was caught off guard when the announcer started to spell out something starting with the letters C & U

Recorder catch:

6925 USB

Fair signal with little fading over low noise conditions for solid copy & possibly even better copy if antenna direction was changed - same details as DW.

03:33z-07:27z Audio

Thanks Cool AM & BOR!

SDR recording catch. First noted at 0333z, with a weak signal. Somewhat better by 0400z.

Recorder Catch on 6925 USB

Started out about an S5 on an S4 floor, but steadily built to a solid S8 while the noise dropped as well; very good reception in the last 2/3 of the show, and definitely one of the best receptions of BOR here.

Details as per Mr. Weed: thanks for the excellent post, DW!

Big thumbs up to Cool AM and BOR for an excellent show!
