Beautiful S9 signal into Masset at 03:17 with Jimmi Hendrix's Star Spangled Banner.  The sun is still high in the sky here! 
Looks like that was it, although there was somebody there cochannel at the conclusion of the anthem. 
Now Summer, by Calvin Harris at 03:26, so is he back, or someone else.  Really blasting into the NW coast!  QSL appreciated!
Yep, DJ Big Willie ID'd as coming from his Mom's basement.
Blank Space by Taylor Swift to 04:08 with an S9 to S9+10 signal now into Masset.  Amazing audio!   Thanks for the early 4th of July program!

Fair to good reception into Masset.  I just happened onto him, but he immediately signed off at 04:17 without any announcements or ID.

Really tough copy tonight into Masset with a huge amount of atmospheric noise and low modulation (at 04:31 UTC check).

Looks like his 6925 kHz was a one-off.  Back to 6935 AM tonight at powerful S9+10 into Masset, BC with the usual genre of big band type instrumentals (very enjoyable).  A fair amount of atmospheric noise tonight.   ID at 04:19 UTC.  A very nice shout-out to me at 04:28, mentioning the "Elephant Cage".  Bud clearly knows something about the FRD-10 antenna just down the road from my listening post!    Thank you!   Walt

Excellent reception into Masset, BC tonight with non-stop music.  I don't see anyone else on at the moment (03:41 UTC).  Thanks for the music!  Colossus by Avatar  Walt

A new frequency l see.  Just booming into Masset, despite another 2 hours until LSS. He must be hiding in the bushes next door to my ocean front cottage!   Perfect modulation and great music, too.  Thanks!  Walt

Fair level into Masset, BC at 03:25 tune-in.  Lots of summertime static, and Masset is still a couple of hours away from LSS.  Off without any announcements at 03:29 UTC.  I'd love to receive an eQSL!   73,  Walt

Pretty bad static today into Masset.  Interestingly, though, the last 20 minutes or so of the broadcast more or less suddenly really picked up to just about very good level.

Good reception into Masset at 05:00 tune-in.  SSTV image at 05:11 of a red question mark, with a top hat and upper torso.  I don't see anything that looks like an ID, though.  Off after that.

Off at 04:30:10 UTC tonight.  Signal remained strong throughout, from 03:44 tune-in.  Josiah must have improved things.  In the past, there would be wide swings in signal strength, but not so yesterday nor tonight.  Good steady signal.

Back again tonight, UTC 12 May 2023 with very nice reception from 03:44 UTC check.  He wasn't there at 03:27.  Masset, BC reception.

Good reception tonight, after an absence of several weeks.  I don't think it's a new program, but who knows for sure!  Best heard on my 290 deg DKAZ antenna into Masset, BC.

Wow, the static is TERRIBLE tonight into Masset.  The Op, I presume, was talking for a few minutes up to 04:54.  Only poor to fair copy.  Not sure whether he went off, or there's music that simply too weak to hear afterwards!
