with long Arabic tune then drum interval signal and ID. Late abrupt

You might have heard them at some time even later than that when they go into
the "Spice FM" programming.

Much different music, more modern I suppose. I've heard them as late as 2115
or so within the the last couple of months or so.

Most times I listen because I like their regular music, they have something
they use, and I'm not sure if it is a keyboard type instrument or not, but I
am always intrigued by the melodic nature of it.

Think they had just gone into the Spice FM part and they cut the
transmitter after starting another song.

I just started listening to them and I do like some of the music. I
think that is some sort of keyboard instrument that they play - or
maybe its one of those lamellophones. Have to look on Youtube.
