Not sure, but I think I heard an ID of "Coca-Cola Radio" and WCOK.

Shortwave Broadcast / Re: UNID 6915 0400UTC 02/21/16

It's WRMI.  They showed up there recently.

Got 6925 AM here at 0328, people with British accents speaking, can't make out too much due to heavy fades.   But believe they're talking about music.

19
Checked 6955 at 0350 to be surprised that XFM is booming in at S9 with peaks at +20.  Half an hour earlier I could barely hear the carrier.

I'm hearing this one with various Christmas music, ID by YL but I keep missing it since it's kind of weak.  I think it may be Moonlight Radio.

Very strong signal with clear audio, just a few static crashes here and there.

Started with announcements that XFM was going to broadcast, then into audio clips from "Pump Up the Volume" (man, I haven't seen that movie in a long time, think I still have it on VHS around here somewhere), then into Big Country.

23
Coming in decently here in SE Kansas.  Signal up & down a bit with fading, and some interference from ALE.

24
It's just a weak carrier here at 2225.

25
Started out with talk, something about people in hospitals, couldn't quite make it all out.  Then into music.  Moderate signal in SE KS with quite a bit of noise.

HF Beacons / Re: Currently Active Beacons

Well it helps to know Morse code for one.  That way you'll know what Morse characters, if any, the station is sending.  However, a lot of them just send strings of dits or dashes.  The HF pirate beacons don't have the same sound as LW NDB's.  NDB's are sent in MCW mode, that is an AM carrier with Morse imposed upon it.  These pirate beacons are usually just plain CW.

Looks like the store nearest to me is on the chopping block.  No big loss because I haven't darkened the doorway of any RS store except for running in to get a tube of thermal compound a couple weeks ago.  That was the first time I'd been in one in years, or at least been in one to actually buy anything.

He certainly is running a risk coming on at 0300 at 6280 every night.

Good levels here in SE Kansas.  Enjoying the jazz song at 2355.
