Someone else just signed on, after BBR went QRT. There was an ID but I missed it.

Here also at 0036 UTC with UNID 80's sounding pop tune, another pop tune at 0041 UTC. Signal varies widely with long deep fades into the noise and occasional peaks of S7! Possibly European?
Seems to be playing 80's tunes....haven't heard an ID yet...or missed one if there was one ???

An update from checking the recording:

0149 ID and mention of 6150 kHz. Radio Nonchalant?
Another ID at 0219 and then off at 0220.

Here is a recording of the ID: http://radiohobbyist.org/blog/mypics/6150-0159.mp3

Any more guesses?

I think you nailed it Chris - even with the ill-timed static burst right after "You're listening to Radio Non-Ch..."

After playing around with the audio clip in Audacity, I agree! The "chalant" part sounds like it rhymes with "ant"...no french accent...the click removal in the Audacity app does wonders for leveling out those static bursts...
The ID also welcomes reports...didn't say where to send them to...not that I could hear!
Hmmm...listening again and again...more likely Radio Nonchalance?

Good luck on the QSL Chris! uhhh...me too :D

Yes, I was just going to comment on that, Skipmuck. The op is asking for reports, but there was no obvious email address there, or during the ID before sign off.

Maybe the op will see this and send me a QSL  ;D

Ah, nonchalance rather than nonchalant eh?  That results in some interesting googling, maybe related, maybe not, but still interesting.
