Tuned in at 2250 utc on Barrington Hills IL sdr with fair but weak S7 to S9 signal, wideband signal, using IQ option on sdr, hear what sounds like broadway show tunes, at 2300 clobbered by very wideband noise centered on 6840 khz, at 2307 moved up to 6880 usb to escape the big wide noise.

Don't pick on Poacher. Molvanian's are required to memorize show tunes. It's the law.

6850 khz. My old stomping grounds when the other pirate frequencies were occupied, in AM, of course.

Mix Radio ID after a thumping bass track and gone. Synchronous AM was best, clean audio 20 over noise blob quieting signal.

Yep, Old Man Yoder and Old Man Smolinski. Talking about old MW pirates. You'd get them just before dark tuning around above 1600 running fake commercials like "Cadillac, big car's for men with small pen!ses."

Andy and Chris talking about TIS stations, lol! Andy used to DX them at one time. He had it bad.

S-9 plus 10 signal.
