Title: Sycko Radio 6920 USB 0229 UTC 23 JAN 2023
Post by: ~SIGINT~ on January 23, 2023, 0232 UTC
UNID 6920.0 USB 02:29 UTC 23 JAN 2023

02:29 UTC - Truly a UNID at first as I could not even make out what mode this one was operating in, AM or SSB. The signal was highly distorted and off frequency;
02:31 UTC - Good readable in USB with Jazz Blues music. Audio is still over modulated but I am liking the track selection. Approx 3.2 kHz wide (200 Hz into the LSB and 3 kHz into the USB);
03:00 UTC - DRM / EasyPal image;
03:10 UTC - Major fade out to my location, the signal is now deep into the background noise.

0232 UTC Unid jazz rock tune-OM singer (S7 peaks with light fading...excellent audio)
0237 UTC Unid blues rock tune-OM singer....lyrics "Never Miss Your Water"
0300 UTC Easypal DRM xmsn now, but it didn't hit on the MSC green
0306 UTC Possible ID with autotuned OM voice?
0312 UTC Another Easypal DRM xmsn but no joy on the decode (How about an SSTV?)  :)
0313 UTC Definitely an ID...? Radio (Will listen back on the recording to get it right!)
0318 UTC ID again...(still hitting S7 here!)
0326 UTC Scottie 2 SSTV (Thanks!), then off

I think he ran one similar to this the other night? He does like his blues.

Fair to good into Masset at 03:10 UTC tune-in with Blues music.  Just a little stronger than 6930U at the same time..
After 6930U signed off, back to this station. 
Noted Jack O' Diamonds, by Cory Harris at 03:21 UTC
Very weak SSTV image at 03:29, then off.  Thanks for the broadcast!  PSE QSL.

Funny, but I listened at 03:12 and 03:13.  I can (now) hear the EasyPal digital (thought it was just noise), but at 03:13, I didn't hear any ID!  Just straight into music....Walt

I edited the recording and found that the 3 parts of the show I thought were ID's, turned out to be a synth voiced jingle sounding like "I like shortwave radio"! Below are the audio snippets as mentioned in my posting:

A lot of SW pirates are weird guys, Skip. Why else would you fool with it in these day's of podcasting?
