Got something down in the mud, definitely music. Listening blind on the IC-7100.
EDIT This is Captain Morgan? Nice! This is one station that's usually just not there at all for me.

Signal has been overall poor, but there were a few nice rises. Thanks for the show! Still going on at 0006 UTC.

2325 Indistinct YL, bouncy music, few words by OM, blusey song - poor signal and barely audible.  Abruptly at 2328 the signal came up nicely with lots of blues music with periodic ID's. 

Initially barely audible, then fair - good.

Alternating between S1 and S9 on the SDR recording, quite good when propagation was cooperating. Thanks for the show, Captain Morgan!
