Title: VMC Charleville QL, 6507 USB, 10/11/16, 1150 UTC

Hearing marine weather in OM voice with English accent. Faint copy which makes it hard to understand location names given. Pip heard at 1155. Per Eibi, this frequency is either VFF Iqaluit Radio from Canada or VMC Charleville QL from Australia. The latter is supposed to be on at this time and the accent would be more suited to an Australian broadcast, so I'm going with that. No station ID heard through 1201.

Heard "New South Wales" clearly at 1205.

EDIT: The frequency was 6507, not 6907 as originally posted.
