Tuned in at 2337 UTC to an open carrier, music at 2338 UTC (Shaken, not Stirred?), into the Bubblegum Express Show :)
Despite all the major flares over the past few days, signal is S8 with some fading and a bit of ute QRM.

0:23 - "...red rubber ball..."  S-8 with deep fades yet still well above the noise.  Nice clean well modulated signal.  Great music selection.  "...Nobody knows like me..."
