that link to youtube was not visible in my browser, I'm discovering it in the quote.

Welcome muromdx,
You really heard Johnny Tobacco tonight, although without ID tonight (or I missed the ID). He often uses the other name : Radio Abu Dhabi. To the best of my knowledge, the frequency was 6284.96 at that time. Maybe you heard the beginning of the transmission tonight ? with songs in Russian, on 6283 then on 6287 kHz. 
JT has one of the strongest signals of the West European pirate stations, and for sure the best audio quality.
Hope to see you with more logs here.
Ray

Thank you for the information, Ray.
I was waiting for clear ID but unfortunately, it was not heard. I began to listen to JT since 1844 UTC - country song, then "Loco Motion", and then signal was fading out.
P.S. Pirates are often heard in my location, I will post my logs here.
Best regards,
Igor
