S3 to S5 on peaks here with relatively heavy QRM from some peskies (using voice scrambling?). I heard a male and female announcer with a clear Metro Radio International ID around 2127 UTC.

mostly in the noise down here, but getting stronger.  Pescs were much stronger, discussing gps problems.

Decent signal here, clear IDs, currently talking about not wanting to go see a band play that has no original members, etc.
Thanks much for the show!

Just tuned in a few minutes ago and caught some IDs.  Decent signal but the static crashes are terrible here right now.
