Carrier appears to be on 6949.3 kHz.  Very strong AM signal at 1505 UTC tune in, however an extremely strong FSK signal on 6945 kHz USB is making listening in full AM mode (wideband) impossible.  Narrow band AM or USB works well though...AM signal appears to be 18-20 kHz wide

1507 UTC - oh wow, this station has a nice wide AM signal!  Shame the data signal on 6945 is, well, on 6945
