ah, you caught my late night test but no one seems to have heard the fellow at 6955Khz a bit prior to my test (not exactly how long though).
whoever it was appears to have been testing also.
they started out on AM, then USB playing "we'll never have to say goodbye again" from England Dan & John Ford Coley.
then it appeared to be a rebroadcast from an FM radio station on 103.1, i heard the call sign of the station but couldnt interpret it.
for the next 15 minutes or so, the 6955Khz station was intermittent with audio on USB and intermittent with a carrier on and off.
at one point, it appeared to be transmitting in FM but with deviation higher than NFM, somewhere between NFM and WFM.
whoever it was had really good audio too.

Aha, I see that on my SDR recording, I must have thought it was a pesky when  saw the USB and random carriers. Now to properly log it...
