SINPO=33443

306- Mellow synthesizer music, sounding like chimes/bells and piano. Mellow and slow. Ambient music style.
313- Tune seems to change. Same style and artist though.
319- Same, another shift in tune by same style and artist.
330- SSTV.
332- Same style music resumes.
334- Different style music. More upbeat, electric guitar sound. OM singing by 336, blues style I'd say.

Thanks Autovon!!

I have a pretty fair signal and decently recognizable music. I have to use the noise reduction feature on my KX3 to overcome some sort of noise/interference just below 6955.

At 03:31 Z it stopped the piano music and is sending some sort  of facsimile Hope someone decodes it!
