6209 kHz USB and 6212 kHz USB are both popular 6 MHz HF SSB marine voice frequencies, so I imagine 6210 kHz has lots of marine traffic SSB QRM (or, in other words, the broadcaster is causing interference to the marine radio users).
U.S. East Coast, various HF/VHF/UHF radios/transceivers/scanners/receivers - land mobile system operator - focus on VHF/UHF and 11m

AFAIK, the marine traffic on 48m is using the surface wave, and is not disturbed by low power AM signals using sky wave. Rarely I heard the fishermen saying they were hearing music, and they were not angry about that, just taking notice.
