Norddeutscher Rundfunk Gruss an Bord, 12/24
« on: December 24, 2012, 2230 UTC »
Did anybody else hear this?  I had it on 9850 to the North Atlantic, from 1900-1920, and then again from 1940-2000 and a bit beyond.  I got interrupted in the middle there by my own holiday preparations.  My log is long and more detailed than anyone probably wants, but there was Christmas and wintery music in both German and English, remarks from male and female presenters, what sounded like a news summary at the beginning, and possibly a live speech or commentary?  I definitely heard applause at least twice.  Call it SIO 434, including a slight hum beneath the audio.  

Caught the second segment on 7335, also to the North Atlantic, but this one sounded much more like a church service.  I definitely heard the German for 'heavenly night' in there.  Sometimes living in Wisconsin really pays off!
