Ha, just tuned in and caught a clear "Radio Abu Dhabi" ID and much laughter :-)  S4-S5, the live IDs are coming through a bit better than the music.

Trying for this since 2300z. Finally caught "....Abu Dhabi" by male op right at 2321z at what appears to be sign-off. Was difficult to hear the music, but as KK7 said, the voice ID was clearer. About a S6 signal/ S5 noise. Just past sunset here.
