Channel Z, 6950.7am, 12/12/09, SINPO 25322
S6 on brief peaks, but fades frequently down to the noise floor.

Not real clear but heard op talking about Channel Z history and/or new equipment. 2023z was a clear ID and dedication of two songs to L Cee, George Zeller, and someone else.

Good to hear you Ch Z. Propagation my direction hasn't been too good.
