UNID KJKK-FM (DFW) Relay 6925.85 AM? ~2253 - 0435 UTC
« on: August 02, 2012, 0033 UTC »
Been noting a weak carrier since about 2253.  Has been building slowly, but no audio yet at 0030.
OM tx / music at 0107
As noted in an overnight recording, this went off at 0336z 0435z. (I double checked my math)

Anyone noting this?

Have been on it since 00:10.

Hearing music but at every break when the talking starts my static level jumps up and I can't make anything out.

Sounds to me like someone re-broadcasting a commercial radio station.

Hope that's so, and that it's not a spur...

Carrier noted for many hours on the SDR, some audio from time to time.

The carrier went off at 0405z.

6925 AM noted again starting at 0437 for a few minutes, not sure if the same station, or someone else. Music heard this time, the signal was slightly stronger.
