Strange spacey tones and sounds on 6950 USB. Good S9 signal in the Boston burbs.
I am guessing this might be the unid tones pirate.

North American Shortwave Pirate / KXKVI via NAPRS 6935 1451 UTC 22 OCT 2023
« on: October 22, 2023, 1453 UTC »
Ethereal instrumental music on 6935 AM. There was maybe an ID at 1452. Having a little bit of a hard time with the audio, though the signal is strong.
1508z: NAPRS ID of KXKVI relay.
KXKVI "Interplanetary Radio" was an old early 90's pirate.

Music by "Aurosonic & Stine Grove" noted on 6925 USB, very nice S8+ signal.
There was a computer voice ID at around 1337 UTC but I have a really hard time with these computer voices.

AM signal playing music, almost sounded like the Dropkick Murphies, then into a voice ID (??). Signal is not strong in the Boston burbs and the audio may be a little low.

Peskies / UNID "Bahstahds" 6282 USB 1320 UTC 13 DEC 2022
« on: December 13, 2022, 1336 UTC »
"Bahstahds" (northeast USA accented English) noted this morning on 6282 KHz USB, casual conversation about a new fiber optic cable being laid across one of their fishing grounds, and miscellaneous stuff about fishing. Terminated at about 1330 UTC "to go get them up" (the crew?). This frequency has had similar USA fishermen ops in the past.
