I hear it too, playing a new version of "sweet dreams are made of this" sung by several women and no musical instruments, fair with light static, now hear SSTV/FAX.
Drake R8, Kenwood R-2000, Panasonic RF-4900, Sony 2010, Realistic DX440, Grundig Satellit 500, 7mhz backyard dipole, Mt Prospect, IL 20miles (32km) NW of downtown Chicago. I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com

My meaningless sinpo logged here in the UK for this station 14321 with perseus + t2fd.

"Sweet Dreams" clearly heard again after Wolverine cd, however, had the rx not been already tuned to exactly the correct frequency, I would probably have struggled to resolve the signal ... on account of my chronic ears and the weakness of the signal.

Anyway, that was a nice one, tail ending the previous transmission - it worked a treat.

Just another disenchanted radio ham, first licensed in the 1970's, returning to his roots.

The ethereal version of "Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)" is by a talented young lady by the name of Holly Mae Heinrich (stage name Holly Henry). She was a contestant on the TV program "The Voice".  :)
