Radio True North 6924.7 AM 0615z
« on: September 04, 2011, 0625 UTC »
9/4/11
6924.7 AM
0615z: CCR "Suzy Q", ID (couldn't copy clearly, faded) and said they'd be on until 0900z; Queen "We Will Rock You", Black Sabbath "Paranoid", AC/DC "Dirty Deeds", Hendrix "Purple Haze".
0626z: Radio True North ID clearly audible during signal peak, faded during rest of anncr's commentary.  Then Billy Idol "White Wedding", Led Zep "Ho Lottie Luv"
SINPO=43423, via Global Tuners in mid-U.S.  Very good peaks, many fades to inaudible.  Hard to tell whether this remote tuner is picking up real QRM from nearby QSOs or it's just MW images - these Icom PCR-1000 web tuners overload badly unless the attenuator is used.

Mostly just a carrier near 6924.7 here at home, although by 0710z I could hear bits of music between fades.

Decent signal, but the noise is so high tonight that I can only hear occasional audio.  Heard bits of "Suzy Q" at 0610z, possibly an ID at 0612 but it was buried in noise.  "We Will Rock You" at 0613.

Thanks!
