Great sounding music with a respectable signal. The signal is measuring S8 and conditions are fairly quiet. Thanks for the wonderful music selections.

Booming in with very slight fading (SINFO 55545) here. Apparently USB, but I'm aware that this station is known for broadcasting in stereophonic AM; if that's the true mode, I'm not sure how to demodulate it properly.
