Recorder catch:

6925 USB SIO 222-322 *0423z-0455z* 08-18-12

Thanks for the ID Chris! Had this as a UNID - was never able to pull an ID out of the noise.  Signal was mostly near or barely above the static level with fading.  Did have a nice fadeup at 04:31z with 'Reeling In The Years' by Steely Dan.
