Title: Radio Whatever 6900 AM 1705 UTC
Post by: ChrisSmolinski on July 21, 2012, 1706 UTC: Carrier noted on the SDR waterfall, upon tuning in, I can hear some faint music.

Finally, a clear ID at 2023z

Post by: jFarley on July 21, 2012, 1718 UTC: Noting this at 1715 weakly with electronic dance music.

1722 Dance track with a YL vocal.
1732 Haven't gotten any audio for the last 10 minutes, tho I still see the carrier weakly.
1747 Popped up with some OM talk over ethereal music. Cud not understand it.
1819 Can still hear music weakly, at least the bass line. Carrier still very visible in a waterfall.
1824 Brilliant short signal peak during a nice song with a YL vocal; I cud see the sidebands rendered in the H20Fall
1924 OM tx while in a fade here and back to the music; this guy's really hanging in here.

FWIW, the music seems to parallel what was being aired on Radio Whatever! last night.

Thanks for the show Radio Whatever!

Post by: aurora on July 21, 2012, 1804 UTC: Very strong here with an S9 signal and great audio. Some fading though. Signal is peaking to +20 dB's at times.
Lots of electronic music - only real audio was a male voice at 1801z said, "Enjoy the show after these messages" but went immediately back to more music.

Music not bad - I rather enjoy it. Thanks

Station faded out at 1810z - never came back.
I notice it is back (thanks B.M.) but the signal strength is very weak and only peaking to S5. My noise level is S4 so the audio isn't as clear now.

Post by: ChrisSmolinski on July 21, 2012, 1807 UTC: Keeps fading in and out here, I must be on the edge of the transmission range atm.

Post by: Beerus Maximus on July 21, 2012, 1821 UTC: Peaking at S8 with periodic but brief fades to maybe S5. Overall quite good. Nice audio too. A very mellow ambient-electro tune at 1820z. I like this.

Post by: Beerus Maximus on July 21, 2012, 1831 UTC: aurora, I still have it at 1831z. I switched over from the TS-590 to the IC-7410 because the noise blanker is better on the 7410. The signal peaks at S9 on the 7410. Hoping for an ID.

Post by: DimBulb on July 21, 2012, 1918 UTC: 1915z Peaking S7 in NH - Radio Whatever perhaps?
Title: Re: UNID 6900 AM 1705 UTC
Post by: ChrisSmolinski on July 21, 2012, 1921 UTC: Signal up to S5 now.
Title: Re: UNID 6900 AM 1705 UTC
Post by: Beerus Maximus on July 21, 2012, 1953 UTC: Still going strong at 1951z at S9, peaks to S9+10. Electronic dub step style stuff. Sounds like a weekend late night on Radio 1. No IDs at all.
