Title: Channel Z 6925 KHz AM 1425 UTC 11/22
Post by: Beerus Maximus on November 22, 2014, 1450 UTC

I have Channel Z on 6925 KHz AM at 1449z playing U2's "I Will Follow" and then into Nirvana at 1449 UTC. Signal is only fair, maybe S5 on peaks. Mention of a test transmission and then closing down with the Sex Pistols at 1506 UTC.
Sign on was 1425z as per the SDR recording.

David Bowie "Rebel Rebel" at 1456z, pretty weak signal, lots of fading.
Alice Cooper "Elected" at 1459z, the signal is getting stronger.
1503 ID, said it was a DX Test. Into Sex Pistols.
1508 Off

Thanks for the test, Zee!

Thanks for the post Beerus! Tune in at 1453 UTC to the end of Nirvana tune, then Man announcer at 1454 UTC with ID and email and snail mail address followed by "Rebel, Rebel"-David Bowie. Signal with deep fades and occasional peaks of S3 amid lots of noise.
EDIT: I was quite incorrect in the ID heard at 1454 UTC. Ooops, thought the voice sounded familiar! Listened back on the recording and definitely Channel Z. Oh well...good morning Z!
