on 6270 v  (6269.3 at first, then checked on 6270.0)
1552 "Pop-corn", next music, 1555 distorted jingle no copy, clear addy : pirate radio at hotmail dot com,
1556 next song, 1558 allo Josef, etc.. bad voice audio

1559 going to be a QSO, 1600 ID as 'pirate radio', low power test, 14 watts

>>> there was a stronger signal just after that, I had no time to report it, probably a QSO reply

1619 only a trace on 6269
Can't confirm an ID without exact times and frequencies 
<<< but with drifting, another station trying to do a QSO, distorted voice, approximate time on logs,
it was very hard to untangle it.
>>> listening to Achim audiolog, much better signal from Skylab Radio, not trying to do a QSO for more than 11 minutes,
but beginning time may be off a few minutes (Skylab saying once 40 watts, another time 14 watts)
>>> then, after Skylab s/off, there's a QSO report from UNID station
