Clever Name Radio pirate station
6940 kHz 6.940 MHz 6.94 MHz
Nothing locally (antenna disconnected due to local thunderstorms), hearing rock music at 2322 UTC tune-in on upstate NY remote receiver. Good audio for SSB, S4-S5 signal with some minor splatter to 6940 kHz LSB. Several times they went off the air and then came back on, sometimes with different signal strengths, either testing or having transmitter issues. Lots of clips of songs and long breaks between songs. Clever Name Radio uses a synth YL voice for ID, mentioned something about "CNR antenna" at 0005 UTC, possibly testing antenna(s) - which would explain the differences in signal strength and random sign off and back on characteristics of tonight's broadcast....
