2345 Heard ID, think it was Moonlight but didn't get a clear copy. Signal just above the noise floor.
       station confirmed via chat. Song is Faeries Wear Boots by Black Sabbath
2350 OM Moonlight Radio ID, into "War Pigs" Black Sabbath
       signal getting S5 peaks now
2358 YL Moonlight Radio ID, into "Paranoid" Black Sabbath
       signal getting S9 peaks now, dealing with a fair amount of static.
0001 OM Moonlight Radio ID, followed by CW, then OFF at 0002.
       Video of reception: https://youtu.be/I2XZRlGZf7Q

Thanks for the show!

Slightest bit of music sometimes heard. Not showing on the monitor most of the time, a little bit of a signal showing sometimes unless......onboard preamp and external preamp switched on which pushes the SDR to just barely flickering the overload/clipping light. Paranoid heard clearly now and easy to ID. Some fading is going on. CW heard.

Thanks for the show.

Caught the very end of Moonlight Radio at 2359 with Black Sabbath playing with ID and sign off at 0002 and CW after that. Signal was a S6-7 and audio good. Thanks MR! ;D
