Title: Pirate Radio Boston 6925 AM 1306 UTC 20 Dec 2012

About S5 to S6, with a lot of fading. I can hear some audio (music?) but it is faint.
0810 "Mary's Boy Child"

Possibly Pirate Radio Boston? I think I heard an ID that sounded like them, but tough to tell.

Clear ID at 1416z.

Off 1439z. Fairly weak at this time.

Here, too. Peaking up to S6, but very little audio.

I've got a barely audible carrier here in Missouri. Snow day today ( I work in a school) so I'm playing with my new R 75 for first time.

14:39z hearing bits of audio,  male voice. extremely faint. listening in USB

I guess I must have heard their sign off @ 14:39

The audio was much stronger after about the first half hour. Still a weak signal, but I had a clear ID by Charlie around 1410, I think. Most of the songs that I heard sounded like older, traditional Christmas music.

Thanks for the show!
