OK...thanks! I'll keep listening and maybe catch an ID...signal is good but fades and noise make for tough copy when the announcer is talking

on 6849.95
2119 extra weak, some music on rare peaks, trace most of the time,
2123 trying all the tricks here, 2126 better on second antenna !
well very hard to hear, but better
2130 talking, probably an ID, in E with US accent ?, 2132 music
2135 DJ, "Great balls of fire", 2137 "Video killed the radio star",
2140 DJ, sounds like Emperor Rosko, 2142 music
2144 lost in the noise

2219 music, DJ ?, music, 2222 trace
2224 M+W duo in F :  ..je vous rappelle l'adresse... (only that copied), music
lost by 2230       2235 trace again, audio under noise level

edit : must have been a relay of R. Mi Amigo Int. (from Spain, through SW relay in Kall), see on Saturday 25th, and that explains Rosko and the F announcement.

I've had some trace audio for a while now. If anyone can list time(s) of possible IDs I will check my SDR recording in the morning.

Skipmunk - I listened to some of your recording. The accent sounded like it might be Irish which makes me think of Blue Moon Radio from Ireland which has been heard on 6850 kHz in the past. It could be worth checking with him to see he if was on this evening - BlueMoonRadio188@gmail.com

Thanks for the tip ukdxer! I haven't heard Blue Moon Radio in a long time! I forgot they used this frequency before!  :)
I'm still hearing some brief weak fade ups of music at 2217 UTC

Nothing on the SW UK SDR on 6850 so obviously skipping over
