Strong signal in western NY on 6963.6 khz
Announcements are hard to get even with a strong signal, computerized voice seems deliberately distorted
0158z Electronic music
0203z "Stern Radio" (thanks to others who have posted on this one, I thought I was hearing "Syko" or "Samurai" but now I hear "Stern")
0226z "Stern Radio" with address for QSLs. but I copuldn't quite get it, even with a phonestic alphabet, maybe "sternradio666@", finishing with "Das ist Stern Radio"

Yeah, I noticed this a few times too. I thought there might be some sort of weird selective fading or cancellation of one sideband going on in the ionosphere so I looked at other SDRs but saw the same thing happening there too, so it must have been coming from the transmitter.
Anyway, this just means that (I assume) they have independent control of the individual sidebands, so the transmitted signal is a summation of a carrier + LSB + USB. Which can be handy to have, I suppose. Unless you have a spectrum display you would never know by just by listening to the audio.

I got the frequency for the thread title from a GPS-locked kiwi SDR. (I didn't use the readout on my portable, which didn't quite agree). I then checked that kiwi against another GPS-locked kiwi and the two kiwis were within 1 Hz, which is expected. You might want to check your RX against CHU.
