In identified station on 6285kHz

Happy to hear a European pirate radio station at my current location. I did not know who it is, so hopefully somebody else can get me an ID

Johnny Tobacco is punching a good one into the East Coast this evening, with some nice S8 peaks the last half hour or so. Playing everything from C&W tunes, to dutch organ music and now "Blueberry Hill" at 0100 UTC :)

S6 to S7 in Kentucky this evening.
Buddy Holly song @ 0105.  "Diesel Smoke" by Dave Dudley @ 0108.
Might have been a quick shout to me @ 0111.
Signal dropped abruptly, but came back up @ 0125 with "Sweet Nothings".
Sounds like he's wrapping things up @ 0205.  ... or maybe not, more music @ 0212.
Thanks for the show JT!

Heard here from 0009-0137 with a variety of music including beer hall polkas, Ik Krjig Een Heel Apart Gevoel Vanbinnen by Corry Konngs (I heart Shazamm), The Old Man Down The Road by John Fogerty, and OM talk including mentions of "Larry in MN," PA, and a mention of Holland. Fought high noise levels to hear this, but decnt signal, which mildly improved throughout, made it possible. Great show on a great pirate night. Thanks for xmtg JT!
