Highly variable signal strength, S4 to S8, percussive music.
Laughing heard at 0312, maybe part of a song, not sure.  Then OM announcer, but couldn't make it out.
Then into more music.

Been listening since 0309 UTC and signal is at threshold level with brief moments of music...can't make out a thing though. Maybe a Euro?
Solid carrier, but modulation seems low.
0324 UTC Signal coming up a bit now...I hear a mournful folk type ballad by man singer
0331 UTC I hear people talking and laughing now, but nada on the copy
(Can't stay awake any longer...maybe somebody can ID this? Another mystery!)
0338 UTC Signal up again...UNID folk tune with harmony vocals
Calling it quits...another acoustic folk tune at 0044 UTC with guitar and harmony vocals. Thanks for the show tonight whoever you are! :)

SDR recording catch:

Tones heard 0206, sounded like spy station XPH, with a little Lincolnshire Poacher mixed in for a few seconds.
Then some music was heard.
0227 "Secret Agent Man"
0231 Parody of "Stairway To Heaven"
0241 "Here Comes Peter Cottontail"
0316 Gone here
