Listening to GlobalTuners receiver The Gulch.

Back to Christmas music.
Announcer with names of songs possibly...and back to music quickly.

Boy, wish I had a 555 here!  At best, 35343.  Seems to be getting stronger at 2244.

Frequency: 6150 kHz
Mode: AM
SINPO: 35533
Radio: SDRPlay
Antenna: Random wire
Date: 2015-12-23
Time: 22:17 - 22:28
Location: Southern Ontario, Canada
Notes: The signal is to weak to ID any of the songs but it does sound like Christmas music. Also the fading does not help at all.

I hear Channel Z here in the Netherlands.
Big Ben clocks right now.
Small signal but there. Good job I think. Mostly low power.
Also heard a short moment Beach Boys. Other songs are christmas songs.

Good Job ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

He is not alone, fisherman are talking there too. Fisherman signal is drifting a lot.

Decent signal here. Would be much better if it were not for the horrendous lightning static! Sounds like July here.

Sounded as though they suddenly went off the air. Did the band change that fast?

Yes, horrible static crashes from approaching storms.
S8 and fair copy @ 2255.
In ECSS mode, got the DSP working hard to eliminate the storm static, "Almost But Not Quite There" by Traffic Jam @ 2316.
ID and QSL info @ 2320.
2322 - "Stone Woman" by Dust
2336 - "Fall Out" by The Police
2343 - "Happy Slap" by Ashok
2347- ID and email/snailmail info and off
Thanks for the show!

 Hearing the show of Channel Z with fair propagation here in Rained South Carolina sounds like a recorded program. Not the usually guy sounds like  British guy. Any way there are some static clashes! Hope the signal will get better!
