2301 UTC, weak music and the distinctive voice of Abu from Dhabi coming thru the noise and static crashes.
Signal is around S3.

Thanks Abu for making it across the pond this evening.
RX: Elad FDM-S2, Grundig Satellit 700
Ant.: HDLA 3 (Active Loop)@315°, EWE @270°, ALA 100LN, MiniWhip

Signal fading in louder. Announcer and music heard clearly at 0020 utc, May 11. I'm tuned to 6.284.95 USB.

Thanks for the show and signal that is getting better as the sun goes down. Much appreciated.

Song with female singer coming in.

0040 utc and SAM mode sounds pretty good too. Music sounds good. ID heard clearly at 0047 utc.

Very clear talk (or QSO) at 0120 utc. And ID.
