Heard a baby laughing @ about 0040, then faded for a couple of minutes.
ID @ 0048 and back into music.
Not very strong, but listenable.
Signal jumped up to S6 to S7, playing unknown song.
"Don't Mess Around With Jim" @ 0055z
Back down to S3 to S4 with bits of a Nickelback song @ 0100z.
Then Bob Seger followed by ID @ 0103z
"Don't Take Me Alive" by Steely Dan @ 0111
ID @ 0114 and off.
