I can hear the signal barely out here in Seattle, but it's fair to good via the Northern Utah SDR ...

0048: "Spirits in the Material World" by The Police.
0049: Sounded like a WTF Radio Worldwide ID. Some interference from peskies, I think.
0049: "Turn Your Love Around" by George Benson.
0053: WWBR, Worldwide Basement Radio ID, then "Stone Cold" by Rainbow. Peskie interference getting stronger via the Utah SDR.
0058: Two IDs, then "Someone Saved my Life Tonight" by Elton John.

I hear it as an LSB signal,
Drake R8, Kenwood R-2000, Panasonic RF-4900, Sony 2010, Realistic DX440, Grundig Satellit 500, 7mhz backyard dipole, Mt Prospect, IL 20miles (32km) NW of downtown Chicago. I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com
