I was parked on the frequency when this came on! OM with "One, Two, Three...Radio Check" at 2045 UTC followed by what sounded like pushbutton telephone tones, then YL and OM on and off...maybe shrimpers?
2056 UTC OM mentioned "70 watts....gonna open this right up now"
2102 UTC 1, 2, 3...1, 2, 3 followed by some electronic wave sound
2122 UTC OM with "KOTH Radio...somewhere between New York and Miami"
2127 UTC OM talking over some instrumental music(chat about the Declaration of Independence)
2131 UTC OM with "You are listening to KOTH Shortwave...we are in the upper side band...60 watts peak"
2139 UTC Bit of punk music that sounded tinny....
(Maybe "King Of The Hill"?)
