UNID pirate station 6891 kHz 6.891 MHz AM

Great signal at tune-in (2134 UTC) with "Highway Star" by Deep Purple.  Some very minor fading SIO 555 with S9+10db signal on the Westminster, MD KiwiSDR.  Seems to be doing 11-12 kHz bandwidth

At 2135 UTC, a very minor break in carrier, then back to music

I've got a *very* noisy copy in Flint, MI... 222. Carrier drops between songs, sounds like a TX on VOX setting, and the audio sounds like it's being miked and not a direct connection to TX... still very weak, but I'm surprised I'm even getting it here on the Sat800 whip! I've been in and out of the room, but it's still there as of 2200UTC.

Frequency: 6891
Mode: AM
Date: 14 June 2019
Time: 2135 - 2206 (sign-off)
SINPO: 33333 via Uniontown PA websdr

Program Details:
Seem to playing tons of Deep Purple. Most of the tunes are off the 'Head Machine' LP.
Signal is good sounding with some static and mirror fades. At 2206 - an fast power sign off. Who ever the operator has good taste via playing this release.

Thanks for the broadcast and jamming who ever you are. And thanks for keeping the signal in
good ole fashion AM. PSE e-QSL if you can.
