I tuned in at 22:00 utc to a S5-S6 carrier with faint modulation on

by 22:30 utc some S6-S7 for short periods.
Can hear bells with the Music.

Can hear speech at 22:37-22:39 utc but can't
make out what they are saying.

Back to music at 22:40 utc, something w/ vocals and a beat??

The signal seems to be slowly improving here. More S7 peaks now.

22:44 utc  Rap Music?
22:50 utc  now S7-rare S9 - much better modulation - is this still Family Radio?
Signal was just getting good enough to start tapping my toes then - off the air at 22:59 utc

I see the carrier right on 6925 with a ? hetrodyne peak at 6925.24 (S3 noise floor, S4-S4.5 carrier).

The modulation is just barely visible on the DDC waterfall, no usable audio for me here.

Still on at 23:06z
