R.Merlin Int'l 6300,1 AM 1620 UTC 18 May 2018
« on: May 18, 2018, 1701 UTC »
Unid for a long time, because too weak.
In fact, 'heard' since 1246 UTC, but the propagation is very weak today, and noisy.
1620 "Waterloo Sunset"
1654 Beatles "A day in the life", 1659 DJ, more music
Could well be R.Merlin, but not clear enough till now.

1809 bit better, 1812 ID (OK), "School's out", 1816 ID (no copy again), Supertramp
 
(school's in for killing today ?)
