tuned in and listening while working, after Ion Radio signed off.
was listening earlier before but was quite distorted, now it is much much better.
sounds best using I/Q on a Kiwi SDR.
oh jeeez, wow, i thought i would never hear this classic Will Smith song - reminds me of "parents just dont understand", they nearly have the same rhythm and could be mashed together for "interesting" results   ;D
"werewolves of london" - reminds me of a great movie this song was featured in called "The Color of Money".
Micheal Jackson backing vocals for "Somebody's Watching Me" by Rockwell - classic - goes hand in hand with "Twilight Zone" by Golden Earring

I had music fading up above the floor when I first tuned in around 1840 UTC, but now it's getting mostly lost in the noise here.

as long as you have it zero-beated as best as you can get it.
the easiest way on a Kiwi is to zoom-in to the max and ever so slightly move the freq slider until you can hear the beating to 1Hz or less.
in this case, i can only zero-beat it to 1Hz which is fine though 0.5Hz or lower would be preferred.
