S8 and good modulation with 'Noche De Accion' [shazam ID] @ 0208z.
Into 'Bixo' @ 0210z
Audio cutting out at times and abruptly switching music mid-song, (possibly tuning through FM stations?)
a bit of 'Cherry Cola' @ 0215z, 'God Killed the Queen' @ 0217z.
Good audio.

Electronic music now. With some guitar?
Very quiet reception over the noise floor. I'm using a noise canceler.  
First pirate in a while! Thanks XLR8. The sun goes down earlier here now. 809pm now.

0331
Angry sounding lead singer.
I switched the polarity on my antenna and my reception doubled to a 2 overall.
SINPO
15342

0336
Punkish music
ID in deep voice sounded like 2 sylables. "___ radio".

Intermittent interference from a utility that I'm pretty sure is on 6930.
