Also weak here in NE Ohio.

2334 UTC S7 here at tune in with fading but well above the noise playing Chrissie Hyndes & Pretenders tune

(Audio sounds very nice here!!!)
Carrier frequency is 6950.4 ish)

23:35 heard some brief music, but at this point 23:38,  just a carrier.

Checked 6950 earlier after you posted it, saw the carrier and a hint of sidebands; but not enough for this SDR to pick up on down here near Washington DC.

Just checked it now (2335UTC) and I can make out some music; has a rock sound to it. Not getting more than a noisy 2 or 3 khz of audio. Extremely extremely weak, with the occasional fading and ionosondes sweeping across, occasional SSB traffic in it's USB. Heard an announcer, but couldn't make out a single word said. There's a lot of noise and other junk back in there. SSB traffic on top of it in various spots.

Can faintly make out Anarchy In The UK in bits just now. Like KGB said, strong carrier but not much audio.

Fading in and out here in Western NY

[dewdude]

Really weak down here near DC; fading in and out. Lot of carrier, not much in the sidebands.

Right at my noise level. Very tough copy. Can tell there is music there, but can't quite make out the song. Almost sounds like there is another station causing QRM.

S8 with fading @ 2352 ID.  Fair copy.

[dewdude]

Almost sounds like there is another station causing QRM.

I've got a digital mode transmission or two junking up it's USB. I'm using a 4.6khz IF; it's difficult even then. But I hear The Doors fading in and out.

S9 +10 here at 0002z with a polka. I listened in LSB for a moment and it sounded like euro-pirate Enterprise Radio is still broadcasting.

0011 Z holding in there about  S-7 with fades closing down their 10th Anniversary show with "Going Underground" by The Jam.  Thanks for the show Z.
