21.47 UTC Willie Nelson - Bridge Over Troubled Water
21.54 UTC Van Halen - Hot For Teacher
22.17 UTC Queen - Radio Ga Ga
22.21 UTC Radio GaGa station ID and off

via K1RA KiwiSDR, but seems to be DSB or very distorted mode
Thanks Radio GaGa for the music, but to be honest, DSB sucks, sorry to say,
cause I cannot listen to clear audio, although your signal was quite strong!
