Toynbee Radio 6950 am 0119z 6/22/2013
« on: June 22, 2013, 0120 UTC »
I can just make out some music right above the static @ 0119z, maybe female punk but difficult to tell, measures about 6950.08 kHz.  Possible ID or announcement at 0121z.

ID at 0127z sign-off, sounded like "spongy radio" or "grungy radio" or similar.

Tuned in at 0126 to music, followed by an ID by an OM

"______________ Radio"

Almost got the first word and then the carrier was gone.

0117z sign on directly into music. Rather weak signal, not much above the noise floor. Program of mostly punk music.
0121z ID
0127z Clear Toynbee Radio ID and off.

Thanks for the ID, Chris.

I dopplered over here from time to time while listening to XLR8, but wasn't able to catch the ID either.

Weak but there, and quite pronounced carrier on the waterfall.
