Most times & frequencies posted are only an approximation.
Wishing the 1980's PopComm was still around.

Brutally bad signal on 13710 KHZ @ 16:01 female Arabic chanting music.    YM with monologue at 16:06.

Had to resort to ECSS  USB  with attenuation  to bring this in intelligibly.

13710 can be anywhere between poor to GREAT here.. usually at least fair, but sometimes kinda "watery" and fadey due to over the pole reception

their 15170 and 15285 around 02 or 03 .. i forget which... are great here often enough
