Jazzy music with lots of brass, strings, and acoustic bass @ 0024.

0255 - still going, S6, occasional fades.  "Me Gustas Tu" Manu Chao
0338 - still there, occasional long fades, but back up with a clear ID

Tuned in at 0054utc, fair signal, hear electronic dance music, R-2000 & dipole.

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.

UNId, 6930 USB, 0108, 7.8.17.  Initially very weak, parody sounding song, harder rock / punk, off or a break.

S5 and fairly clear.

Request: "Animal in Man" Battalion of Saints please. THANKS!

Thanks for the show!!  ;D

Next Morning Edit:
There was nothing on 6930 USB on my SDR recording (which began promptly at 0000 UTC) until 0055, when suddenly some electronic music swelled up. Generally present at one level or another for the rest of the broadcast. (I shut off the recording at 0400.)

Recording made at 0057, finishing with clear "X L R 8" ID at 0059: https://youtu.be/yg4s6wwszvE
