01:56 blues song - possible ID over the song but it was a
02:02 ID
FAST ID's
02:07 off?
02:11 ---Can hear a carrier (no audio) now at 6.949

02:13 audio came up just now, then faded ID's are so fast to me I can't Tell if it's Weatherton Road Radio or Weather Control Radio
It's kinda like the famous Jimi Hendrix song phrase: "e'cuse me, while I kiss the sky" but you might hear..."e'cuse me, while I kiss this guy" ;D

02:33 Monkees - Last Train to Clarksville followed by I'm a Believer

Post by: oly1959 on May 30, 2015, 0151 UTC: Again, using the Melrose Park, Ill. tuner. catching Weatherton Road Radio with a S7-8 and really good audio but dealing with lots of static and fading playing the 'The Outlaws". This is a new catch so I will have to check the recorder we I am back home. Same on the SDR recorder. ID at 0140 and 0300 which is actually "Weather Control Radio". Has now shifted to 6947 the to 6949 playing all sorts of Classic Rock tunes! Heard songs by Lou Reed, Van Morrison, Them, Monkees, Sam and Dave and INXS. Off at 0313. Any chance of a QSL? Thanks for the great show this evening. NEW CATCH! :mrgreen:
Title: UNID 6947 AM - turns out this was the 6950 station
Post by: radio_cosmo on May 30, 2015, 0224 UTC: Observed carrier tune up then launched into music - didnt catch first song but second was "I'm waiting for my man" by The Velvet Underground. Good signal strength into Chicago, just lots of static from storms.

Title: Re: UNID 6947 AM
Post by: radio_cosmo on May 30, 2015, 0236 UTC: Ok thanks - not a new one - the signal from 6950 moved down. Before I heard VU, it sounded like someone was tuning up on frequency so guess the 6950 station re-peaked their output, then started the music up. Makes sense!
Title: Re: UNID 6947 AM - turns out this was the 6950 station
Post by: jdstephens on May 30, 2015, 0308 UTC: OK - is it Weatherton Road Radio or Weather Control Radio?

Hearing it here in N Alabama 0300+ on 6948 AM, with three INXS songs in a row. ID and/or e-mail address?

Post by: rundangerously on May 30, 2015, 1003 UTC: 5/30 - 6949 - 6948 kHz?! weather control radio

solid signal here in westchester county, ny - but frequency all over the place. started just under 6950 - dipped down to just over 6948. it was mostly just under 6949. seemed to have lost signal at 0202 - nothing across those frequencies. but came back up around 0210. more noise than expected (maybe weather related)?

0150 - blues music
0156 - into another blues song, stepped on w/id "weather control radio" (could have been mistaken as weatherton!)
0200 - into blues, again stepped on w/id - but by
0202 - lost station across 6948-6950 - though it had signed off!
0210 - back on 6948 w/Hendrix
0213 - into lou reed - sweet jane!

great selections! thanks for putting on the tunes :D
