Title: Radio True North 6925 AM
Post by: Zoidberg on August 10, 2011, 0319 UTC

Global Tuner catch via Colorado:
8/10/11, 6925 AM, 0245-0305z: Radio True North spinning Van Halen 1984 on vinyl.  Very rough conditions, just able to copy familiar songs like "Jump" and "Panama".  Off after Radio True North ID.  SINPO=34232, fighting constant heavy static crashes and fades, only minor ute/data QRM.  Caught a carrier here at home that corresponded with RTN's 6924.7 signal.

I had someone here at about 0415 or so. Not strong enough to easily hear an ID. I've been hearing RTN, NRS, and Southern Relay Svc frequently in this time frame with similar signal levels. But I believe it was a few hundred Hz lower than 6925, which would probably mean that RTN came back on. Guess I'll have to check my recording more closely. It seemed to go off (or faded out) around 0530.

Thanks for the log!

Right you are.  RTN came back on for awhile and went off air right at 0530z.  Had a fairly good carrier then on my home receiver, but just barely perceptible audio.
