7600 AM SIO 323

Decent signal with current conditions, but UTE interference pretty bad.  Never caught a positive ID

00:42z 'All Along The Watchtower' - Hendrix
00:45z 'Rapture' - Blondie
00:50z "...41 meter band...you are listening to a test transmission from your all new music (?) and all your favorite rock songs (?)..."
00:51z 'unknown song
00:54z "...41 meters...seven six zero zero kilohertz...this is all music (?)....music from the 60's, 70's, 80's & today..."
00:55z 'Creep' - Radiohead
00:58z sounds like Barry White
01:02z music stopped, eventually lost carrier or off

Audio(00:42z-01:02z): http://www.archive.org/download/ShortwavePirateRadio/IslandRadioirishPirate7600Am0042z-0102z07-31-11.mp3

Thanks :)
