Good signal here also on 6935 USB at 1132 UTC tune-in with Native American chanting, 1133 UTC Loon cry and man announcer "This is Northwoods Radio", into some haunting flute music.
( Nice to hear the Jackpine Savage again on this holiday weekend! Love these Sunday morning broadcasts :) )
1145 UTC Lady Announcer with ID
Seems to be a Native American themed program of music....great stuff! Music to soothe the wild beast....or savage ;D
Exceptional USB audio! Wish I still had my copy of "The Conspiracy of Pontiac After the French & Indian War"....one of my favorite college day reads!
1158 UTC ID and email address... northwoodsradio@gmail.com
1214 UTC Live ID mentioning this was from a 2006 broadcast...well wishes for the Labor Day Weekend and CW
Interesting similarity between the Native American and Asian music...leads one to believe the generally accepted origins of the Native Americans as Asian, crossing the Bering Sea during the last Ice Age and traveling down the Mackenzie Corridor into what is now the USA.
(Signal has been dropping a bit as daytime absorption takes it's toll...still well above the noise floor at 1235 UTC)
Had to run an errand, but left the recorder running. Special thanks for an excellent program of music that you won't hear anywhere else! Nice to travel back in time to a day when things were a lot simpler.... ;)

S6 and low noise this morning.  Bass seems to be lacking, but decent audio.
Chanting and drums @ 1208z
ID @ 1300z, starting to get some light fading but still good copy.
