Signal noted shortly after 1700 UTC but not at 1650 UTC. Assumed that they signed on at 1700 UTC. SINPO 33333 at 1700 UTC in Italy at the moment.

1750 UTC - Much better reception noted. SINPO 34443.

EDIT: Corrected time stamps. Sorry.

1832 UTC - Usual computerized ID. Announced they are on "Six thousand, two hundred seventy-five Kilocycles". (I assume used "Kilocycles", rather than "KiloHertz", to complete the retro theme. :D ) I checked on that frequency and nothing heard there.

1843 UTC - Dead air and signal has dropped very low.
1844 UTC - Signal improving.
1858 UTC - Checked again and the music is back.
