1300 Station ID (not copied) and then music in the noise

621
0955 carrier on 6309.85
(is outside of the previous drifting range of Harmony)

I think this carrier is stronger in power than I would normally receive harmony during the morning/daytime here.  It is now the strongest signal I am getting compared to all other AM signals between 5900 and 6300 khz....

1005 UTC signal increased to S7 at peaks
1010 UTC signal peaks at S9 here now
1017 UTC S9+5db peak
1020 UTC signal droping into the noise and now S1-2 (entering the skip zone?)

622
0958 UTC - trace of music here S1-S2 - I must be too close to receive a good skywave

623
Thanks, Ray,

My HF receiver doesn't have such a precise freq display as yours. Signal still a mystery then.

0945 UTC - unmodulated carrier received again now peaking between S4-5 in N England with my tuned halfwave dipole.
1001 UTC - Signal strength increased noticeably to S7 now

624
I too received this unmodulated carrier most of yesterday too, sometimes S9 in N England.  Considering the frequency, and the size of it's dead skip zone around Ireland, it may have been Harmony's TX.  Today nothing, so maybe the TX is being serviced or they have a problem.  It seems a bit of a coincidence for it not to have been Harmony, due to freq having been used by them these last few days and harmony not being on any other wavelength at the moment.
