1928 Just signed on? OM speaking over music.
1936 Off
1942 Synth YL - WPAR?
1945 Same distorted synth YL voice, then into music.
1952 ID with phonetics, which helped.
2007 Haunted music / sound effects
-
1929 Scary noises/voices/music but right at noise floor
1942 I thought I heard WQAR, but I could be wrong
-
1944 UTC YL with repeated ID sounding like WTAR...."introducing Transcendental Root Canal"
1945 UTC OM with spoken word drama over spooky music..."There is no democracy"
(Seems to be some repeated or looped statements)
1952 UTC YL with ID in phonetics "Whiskey Papa Alpha Romeo" :)
OFF after ID
Here's a link to my recording....S8 signal and excellent USB audio!

2007 UTC Back on with ambient spooky sounds from Hell
2012 UTC OFF again
2020 UTC On again with ambient music followed by YL with ID in phonetics, then back to the music
2024 UTC YL with "There is no America...There is no Democracy" followed by music again
2026 UTC YL with ID then OFF again
I would very much appreciate an eQSL for WPAR if the op plans on doing the deed! :)

Hearing it near Washington, D.C. Weak signal but clear and somewhat audible. S5.
Heard "there is no democracy" repeated over and over, and the phrase "21 inch screen and howl about America and democracy."
This is taken from Ned Beatty's speech in the movie Network.
YL with phonetic WPAR ID at 1952, then gone.
