~2300z - Looked like an AM carrier in the waterfall, though there has been a pesky tuning a radio on 6920lsb, so YMMV.

2310z - Music. SINPO 45332. S8 at times via Airspy HD+D and 31' vertical. Some band noise and moderate to deep fading. ECCS LSB tuning due to peskies a few MHz higher.

2320z - Peskies gone. DSB with sync now possible. SINPO 45333.

2328z - SINPO 45443. A little DSP filtering is making for a decent copy.

2341z - Off air.

Thanks for the broadcast! :)

6920 back, off and on, as of 2309 with music, weak signal in Maryland
Signal much better at Newton NH with instrumental guitar music as of 2317
Rain Brandy has a point -- the signal at two Euro SDRs including Twente is really strong
So WHO is this?  Or WAS this -- it closed at 2341 with no ID

Decent signal playing an instrumental rock song with harmonica, then into a slow instrumental pop song with organ at 2332
Seems to've gone QRT around 2342. Have a recording if the op's interested
