6925 AM Mode, Radio True North with a massive signal, just booming into Daysland, with some great music, gave an ID @ 03:03 hrs asking for reports/comments to this e-mail address: Radiotruenorth@gmail.com
Another great program from this station !

All I can see in the Perseus program waterfall is an intermitent signal streak and no audio heard except the slightest bit in the noise. Wish I was getting it better.

I've been trying to pull it out but just a carrier here no matter what radio/antenna/preamp combo I try...
But I gave it a shot :-)
It has been very quiet last Sunday & tonight... Too quiet... :'(

Time check as "53 minutes past UTC" and then Pop selection "Who can it be now" by the Police ( one of my favorites) Signal dropped some down to s2-s3 with fading ( sunset enhancement gone now) other wise still a decent copy....

SDR Recording Catch

Just a carrier on frequency here as noted by others.
At times, a brief word or half and that's it.
Hope to hear you real soon.

SDR recording catch, 0244 sign on, weak at first, but improved over time.

Recorder Catch on 6925 USB

Generally weak towards to front end of the show, but as Chris S noted, improving over time and the last half hour was quite good actually; about an S8.  Many clear live and canned IDs.

Thanks RTN!

Were you using a directional antenna? I could barely hear you & the signal was very weak, not your usual
KIPM-like powerhouse.

No Nella F.  It was just funny conditions last night.  Some people heard me well.  Some didnt.  Thanks to ol Sol for being inactive.
