Only can tune-in in LSB, but it's not quite right.

Been hearing it in AM here.  Parallel with WBCQ on 5110khz.  Not sure if a rebroadcast or maybe transmitter troubles at WBCQ.

SDR catch, came on with carrier at 0110 UTC and then into old-time Christmas music (really old stuff).  WBCQ ID at 0118 UTC.  I have this in AM, S4-S6, muffled modulation similar to what a harmonic would sound like.
