Radio Ga-Ga "waterfall ID" heard (well, seen) at 1628/1629 UTC, then off the air for about 4 minutes.
Music came back on at 1634 UTC. Listening locally and watching it on a remote SDR waterfall. WIDE audio on the USB, looks to be 5-6 kHz wide. Sounds great with the bandwidth opened to 4480 Hz (this remote's max bandwidth for SSB mode). ZZ Top at 1636. Carrier sitting on frequency (6925.0 kHz) as well. Bandwidth appears to have dropped a little bit (with ZZ Top's "Tush" compared to the first music clip).
Station ID by OM at 1627, then into The Eagles "Life In The Fast Lane" signal jumped up considerably at 1638-1639, now a strong S7. A bit of splatter to the LSB at peaks. Switched to AM mode and it actually sounds good. Not sure if Ga-Ga is transmitting the carrier or if its another station. Carrier gone at 1644 UTC.
CCR's "Run Through The Jungle" being played at 1644 UTC. Strong audio sounds good in USB. CSN (and Y??) - Teach Your Children with audio cutting out a couple times at the start of the song and intermittent adjacent-channel utility QRM but still sounding good
"Radio Ga-Ga broadcasting live from Zipper Lake" at 1650 UTC, some clips - then AC/DC's venereal classic "The Jack" (possibly a live/bootleg recording). Signal getting even stronger now (1652 UTC), peaked at S9, then back down to S7. Audio cutting out a couple times during "The Jack" - sounds like audience sounds in the background. Thanks for the show!
Signed off at 1706, followed by "and remember, fish on!" and then GA GA GA GA sent several times, followed by FISH FISH FISH (all in "waterfall ID" mode)
