19:25 UTC - The station has a decent carrier level but lacks modulation to punch through. The signal is barely over the noise floor.
19:34 UTC - Can hear the male announcer but too faint to understand.
19:35 UTC - Musical programming returns.

As noted in the subject line, the Station is slightly off frequency operating at 6869.7480 kHz.
