Rock music heard just above the noise at 6930 USB.  Announcement after the song either very low in level or nonexistent, so no ID yet.

Great international modern hard driving pop and metal music contrasted with old time radio spots.  I love it!

I appreciate the hifi audio and wideband AM - Well done!    10 dB over S9 here in the upper midwest of the USA at 0510Z.

Happened to tune across the interval signal around 0305Z on 6925 kHz USB then into music.  Interesting mix of old time radio commercials and bouncy music.  QSB, s3- s9.

Sign off at 0445Z with "It's an ILLUSION... a trick is something a whore does for money.  Or cocaine."

Virus 19 Radio 6.931 MHz USB at 2245...

Male announcer, discussion of laziness and dreams of radio engineering.  Nothing serious tonight, then into "Living in a Ghost Town" by The Rolling Stones.

Good signal in far northern Illinois...  Thank you

Tuned in at 2100Z, sounds like some Pink Floyd music in USB on 6.92997 MHz.    Signal dropped off the air for a moment or two around 2104-5, then back with more Floyd.

SSTV at 2112, silence, then "Riders on the Storm". 

Very strong signal S9 to +20 dB in far-northern Illinois.

The Final Countdown, SSTV, Sinatra, then Dean Martin, Doors RotS again - fun stuff.

Thank you.
