Fair reception at 03:22 tune-in and noted the co-channel, "3-2-1 out" and "test". Much stronger than Radio Free Euphonia. Quite a lot of static tonight. But still another 80 minutes until LSS in Masset.

Tuned in at 0425 to hear a lot of static, but with music playing. Take away the static, and reception would be quite good into Masset, BC. Still, it's only approaching LSS now.

Easy, Paul. It's Mix Radio International. They've been all over the place for the last week or so. Very strong into Masset at 03:44 tune-in. Frequency is 12100 USB even, and not 12103, although they might have dropped in frequency earlier.

Great reception with MRI logo on my KiwiSDR's waterfall. Loop music from 0410 UTC tune-in. Interesting choice of frequencies, and much better than the 42 meter pirate band this time of the year. ID at 0414. QTH is Masset, BC off the NW coast of BC, Canada.
Images appear between 12080 and 12085, and also include HFU and Bermuda Triangle. Mix Radio International Worldwide ID at 0418:40 and preceded by
Dang! by RJC (Rhythm & Jazz Coalition). After ID:
Softly (Forteba Remix) by [feat. Jaidene Veda]
....still going at 04:35 UTC, although they were mentioning concluding the program. "In real life, this is Mix Radio International". Broadcasting from somewhere in North America....off at 04:36:10 Thanks for the great show and the unique waterfall kaleidoscope!

Weakly heard in Masset, BC at 03:03 UTC, but on measured 6949.801, so either 6950.1 was incorrect, or a drifty transmitter!
On 6949.806 rechecking at 03:08. Agree, a lot of lightning static tonight. Transmitter now off at 03:10 UTC....Walt

Coming in very nicely into Masset tonight from 0330 tune-in. I"m still another 1/2 hour until LSS. Best heard on my large diameter ALA100LN aimed 40/220 degrees. Nice and quiet. Shazam isn't able to ID the song on at the moment.
0333: same Shazam unid!
0336: Boat Anchor ID and email
0337: Doctor Tom by Freedom North (finally an ID from Shazam!).
