Combination Radio 5815 10:35 34333 “Paradise City” (Guns ‘N’ Roses). I’m not 100% certain about the ID – Shortwave Cowboys and another station, I think.
UNID 6210 10:24 13221 Weak music. Time Radio?
Mystery Radio / Playback 6220 12:49 23222 Live programme. Unfortunately, as is often the case, the Mystery Radio signal had almost faded out at this time.

Strangely, I think this is the first time I have ever heard Merlin. For some reason their signal just does not propagate to my location. I hope to hear them again soon.
