Very nice signal for about four minutes. At tune the op was giving out the postal mail address and then into the song It's So Easy. Just after the song ended the signal went down and the noise came up to make the show unreadable right now. Can still hear talk but can't make out what he is saying.
Northeast Ohio
Now using Shazam for song identification

Tuned in at 2043 UTC but the signal is at or just barely above the noise floor here. I'm getting bits and pieces of music but nothing that can be ID'd yet :(
The carrier is quite good here so maybe undermodulated?
Man announcer at 2100 UTC then OFF...no carrier detected at 2101 UTC

Hello boys ;D  Seems that everyone of you have heard something of our transmission. Of cource it is not much if heard carrier and noted that man was spoken at 21 UTC- and after that signal off- But that was what happened. Wish you have sent your reports to Herten?
