Did some sleuthing and this might be a stretch but could this be WCLX out of Westport, New York (though it's branded as a Vermont station)? Listened to their web stream for a bit to confirm and the style of music seems to match.

Some miscellaneous information - Olayomi Koiki is the radio presenter for the station on 9890 kHz. ("Radio Ominira Yoruba" - "Radio Freedom Yoruba").
He is also an announcer on Starr Radio - 9JA (London, England), which focuses on Nigerian issues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8f4ghcoqbn4 . It is
Koiki Media ( https://koikimedia.com/ ) that has posted videos on Youtube of the test transmission of "Radio Ominira Yoruba."

Ah, thanks for the information, I've fixed the station ID in that case.

00:56 S7 - S9 on the vermont mountaintop SDR, been actually listening since INXS gave us a New Sensation, going to see if I can get this on my DX-160 and report back

could just barely make it out over local noise, neighborhood noise conditions in that freq region seems pretty bad tonight, might move my setup to another room later. Central NH if that matters.
I'm going to drink the rest of my beer to soothe my radio woes.
also thanks for the Police just as I hopped back onto the internet SDR, one of my favorite bands.

01:51 ID and off
like thanks for the show, like totally.

Note: 01:10 UTC - This is unrelated but interesting. I just copied a US Military UTE with coded message on 6945.0 kHz. Same type you usually get on HFGCS frequencies. This is an unusual frequency to find this UTE.

I picked this up as well, it was stronger on my home radio than WTF was actually, very strange.

0354 Male voice talking, hard to make out over the noise, sounds like an old recording, possibly an old radioplay
sounds to be an old sci fi radio show from what I can make out.

0434 Off

0058 The Guess Who - These Eyes

was playing what I assumed to be christian music but I now think is the group's theme song when I first tuned in, been a mix of african music and a man talking in an african language since, sometimes full songs, sometimes just short clips.
I assume it's the same station as  https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,82767.0.html

22:20 the same song as when I tuned in again and switch to english, a man giving a political speech about Zimbabwe and it's constitution and how they aren't requesting anything that breaks it I think.
22:24 Same song again and switch back to their native language

S7 - S9 +- with some noise but very listenable on Vermont Mountaintop Radio kiwiSDR

Song is actually a version of the Ondo State National Anthem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPYLef-hyhA

(originally posted in shortwave broadcasts but the nature of the station seems like it may actually belong here)

seems to actually be on 6954.8? Maybe even a bit off from that, but still sounds off not mater how much I screw around with the frequency
right now seems to be playing what sounds like electro-industrial avantgarde cowboy music.
0413 OM something about "don't stop now to outhouse for playing that wonderful music" dead air "yah you figured", not sure if they were talking about outhouse or IDing as.
0414 Dead air/off?

S7 -+ on N1NTE KiwiSDR4

Kandi -

I remembered the playlist likewise (especially Bowie) and posted about it 4 weeks ago.  I am out of area now and can't hear tonight's broadcast.

https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,81299.msg264885.html#msg264885

Yeah, seems to be the same playlist judging from the posts, they just logged off early this time, maybe they were just doing a test.

0303 Off?

S7 - S9+10, nice sounding N1NTE KiwiSDR4

judging from the synth voice and the Bowie and Nue could this have been Radio Eno WENO?
