1935 Sign on as per SDR recording. ID given. Steely Dan music?
1947 Just tuned in, SIO 333. Heard an ID but got a burst of noise at exactly the wrong time. Back to music.

Strong signal at 1952 UTC tune-in.  Unfortunately, carrier signal on 6900.0 kHz mixing in at times....still strong modulation

1953 UTC - music, SIO 434 or so due to minor fading and heterodyne QRM from 6900 kHz carrier
1954 UTC - signal now up to S6 with good modulation, sounds like a remix of "Do It Again" by Steely Dan
1956 UTC - OM with ID and email address for reception reports
1957 UTC - back to music
2000 UTC - 6900 kHz carrier came back, OM with same announcement (ID + email for reception reports) as 1956 UTC
2001 UTC - off the air
