UNID pirate station
Frequency: 6925 kHz 6.925 MHz
Mode: AM - several minutes of unmodulated carrier followed by music starting sometime between 1422 and 1429 UTC.
Have a carrier sitting on 6925.0 kHz at 1420 UTC (1020 local) tune-in time. No audio heard or modulation seen on various US-based remote receivers, but the carrier is nice and strong, about a S6 to S7 signal locally. Nearly completely quiets the receiver in FM mode (or did, back when it was just an unmodulated carrier). See below for the logs, as I tuned in before they started playing music.
I have to say, I am enjoying these daytime shows!
1430 UTC - Tuned back in after listening to pescadores on 6930 kHz USB, now hearing music on frequency! Tail end of a track
1432 UTC - new song playing, nice looking signal and strong modulation with S7 signal strength overall SIO 444 right now
1433 UTC - Signal readable on NY remote same as southern US remote receivers, roughly 7-8 kHz wide signal with nice AM audio
1434 UTC - data burst QRM on the USB
1438 UTC - some selective fading now, but nothing that detracts from the listening experience
1439 UTC - new song playing with YL vocals
1452 UTC - minor data burst QRM, this time on 6919 kHz USB
1453 UTC - another track now playing - YL vocals
1509 UTC - signal strength now down to S5, still very good signal and little noise means no problem with armchair copy right now
1516 UTC - REO Speedwagon - Take It On The Run
1520 UTC - Modern English - Melt With You [solid S5 signal still!]
1526 UTC - Eddie Money - Take Me Home Tonight [signal has dropped a bit down to S3 or so with more pronounced fading]
1748 UTC - [was away from the radio for a bit] came back to hear "Hold The Line" by Toto, S4 peaking to S5 with minor fading
