« on: May 06, 2015, 1224 UTC »
SDR recording catch:

0116 sign on with music, fairly weak signal.
0121 OM talking. Difficult to understand what he was saying, but I recognize the voice as the station op.
0123 Back to music.
0125 OM talking, Toynbee Radio ID repeated.
0127 Off.

Recorder Catch on 6925 USB

A very good signal, and it looks like around an S8, which is the best I've ever had Toynbee.  Somewhat off-tuned, and despite a solid het, I was able to scrape out a solid ID from the audio.

Thanks Toynbee, and pray tell: what does my future hold?

Well, I have already been damned by TR, so there's not a lot to lose here.  Let's call this a thinly veiled request for some neuroholographic imagery, aka a QSL.

But I really do appreciate your concern.

SDR Recorder Catch
6925.2 kHz here - S5 to S6 carrier only - no ID

0116 - Seeing carrier on frequency, but impossible to harvest a shred of audio here yet.
0125 - Thought I heard a repetitive something in the audio.
0127 - Carrier Off
