6925u...OKOM Rebroadcast, UNID relay
« on: November 28, 2009, 0627 UTC »
Bye Bye Blackbird 0623z
..singing, comedy, antics w/ live audience and Dixieland band
Saints Go Marching In 0629z
Side by Side 0653z
Banjos...singing 0710z
singing, music, commentary from the host 0724z
Mac the Knife, (dixie style) 0744z

SIO 333 here @ 0623z

No ID from the relay station...a very enjoyable change of pace.

However, this was a replay of a OKOM (Our Kind of Music) recording... okom.com:

"Welcome to OKOM which stands for Our Kind Of Music. You know, the music that you or your parents grew up with. The unforgettable tunes of the 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, and 50’s. The Society Orchestras, those fabulous Big Bands, Trad Jazz, Ragtime, Dixieland, Old Time Radio, and the greatest singers of all time."

Overall SINPO was 34333, at least a two hour show.

Unid pirate playing recording of live performance by Louisiana Repertory Jazz Ensemble; might be some other Dixieland style bands in there too.  No ID for station audible so far.  E-mail address given for hosts of this relay indicates at least part of this show is programming from radio station OKOM.

11/28/09, 6925 USB
0608z: Sounds like live comedy routine with jazzy banjo, clarinet and oom-pah musical accompaniment.  Only S1-S2.
0632z: Big signal jump, from S1 to S7 with "When the Saints Go Marching In" (thought I heard some mention of The New Christy Minstrels and someone named Henry?)
0635z: Talking to audience about playing various musical instruments
0636z: Something about playing the Kaopectate festival: "We had a long run."
0637z: "Tiger Rag"
0640z: "We played that song as if we were double parked!"
0642z: Wisecracks about card key for Algonquin Hotel.  Mention of Lou Green on cornet (Louisiana Repertory Jazz Ensemble?), Linda Pickles (sp?)
0650z: "I Wish I Could Shimmy Like My Sister Kate"
0702z: Possible ID mixed in with program, buried under noise and fade
0738z: Stronger peaks again past 10 minutes.  Commentary from two men sounds like this might be a relay of a pre-recorded show about Dixieland jazz, but not enough detail to identify.
0745z: Jazzy version of "Mack the Knife"
0801z: Off suddenly after another OKOM ID and "It's 3 o'clock", which may have been 3 am Eastern time, corresponding with the physical location of OKOM.  Still no ID heard for pirate station that provided this relay.

Very entertaining show, thanks!

Good signal peaks, lots of fades, much better after 0630z, more fading again after 0650z.
