Undercover Radio, 6940, 0120, 11.3.12. Music came up for a couple of minutes - sounded like part of "Highway to Hell" covered by someone.  Het and signal there however not much audio.
- back in at 0130 with Dr. Benway talking about testing & mention of Undercover Radio.  Right at static floor.

Also heard here. Lots of deep fading tonight.
SINPO 52224

Was testing my receiver also so kind of funny to hear someone testing their transmission equipment at the same time ;D

I had this too, though the signal was anywhere from at the bottom of the lake to SIO 333 or so, depending.  Darn deep fades, as mentioned above.  Didn't recognize the music, but the voice I heard sounded like Dr. Benway.  He mentioned something about the origin of his stories.  Signal again improved noticeably, this time at 0200, but that could've just been a shift from no audio to audio for all I know.  It was hard to tell.

SDR catch. Carrier up at 0104 for a few minutes, then off and back on again at 0107z. Very weak audio.

Recorder catches:

6940 AM (rx in USB) SIO 323-434

Signal range from AM portion being decent overall and sideband broadcast cutting through stronger.
