Music Bed #1 6880 AM 0050 UTC 11 Mar 2014
« on: March 11, 2014, 0055 UTC »
About S7, fair to good copy, playing "The Metro" @ 0053z
0102 - "Candy-O" by The Cars, then YL with 'Music bed number one', and into "Dance Hall Days" @ 0103z
Excellent audio on the peaks, unfortunately the noise prevents me from really opening up the filters to enjoy it.
YL repeats 'Music Bed Number One' after every song, so I am going to call that an ID....
I think they gave another ID @ 0124, just before sign-off, but I missed it.

Have the signal here and it's not as strong as it had been. Nice selection of music. S3-S5.
0123 A female gave the station id followed by a man saying "Tony Straka?" and off.

SDR recording catch. Carrier came up at 0048, programming started around 0050.
Good copy here, mostly S8 to S9.
