Revised logging:

Sting "Message in a Bottle", fairly strong signal.

I have no idea how I came up with the previous logging details during this time period. I'm blaming aliens (of the UFO variety).

Recorder Catch on 6925 USB

Very curious.  I did not hear this in my overnite recording, nor did I hear it the previous night.

Last night (5Mar14) I have "Message in a Bottle" cover, possibly by Sting, at 0452-0455z at good level.

OK... this is getting weird. I went back to the SDR recording, and sure enough I have "Message In A Bottle" at 0452z on 6925 USB.

But I also have a WAVE file I extracted this morning (perhaps before I had sufficient caffeine) with what I previously logged. But I didn't timestamp the filename like I usually do. So now I am going back through the SDR recordings, trying to find exactly when I heard this last night. Assuming I actually did.
