Heard the CW ID at 0245 but only a tone/carrier thereafter.
Heard CW ID @ 0300 followed by OM ID.  
Sounded like some swing music after IDs.
Signal id faint with lots of noise and constant OTHR bursts.
Chattanooga Choo-Choo @ 0306?
More swing music with a female vocal.
~0314 sounded like an extended WWII news report into more big band music @ 0320, "Somewhere Over the Rainbow."
Sorry Radio Zed, but heavy static and OTHR burst have taken their toll on my ears.
Hopefully conditions will better at my location for your next broadcast.
Thanks for the show.

Some music heard starting around 0304 on the SDR recording, perhaps an SIO 222.
