Hearing music as of 1917z on 6930 AM.  Later seems to have switched to sideband, audible on both usb and lsb with no detectable carrier.  No ID as of 1948z.  Fades to inaudible but peaks to S9+, nice audio.  Off at 2023z after Jimi Hendrix tune.

Tuned in about 0145z, hearing a bunch of ZZ Top tunes.  IDs at 0147 and 0205.  Solid S9 signal with some fade and band noise.  Audio is better than usual for Outhouse.

I've been hearing WEAK since about 0700z.  I don't recognize any of the tunes, a lot of punk, but a really wide variety of stuff. Excellent audio!

Thanks for another late nighter WEAK!  SIO 434, slight fading with some static and OTHR.

Here's about 20 minutes worth:

Tuned in at about 0407z to Beatles music and MAC ID.
0411  Ultraman tells us that these are mono versions of these songs.  Then email and into a movie review.
0414  Hey Joe  - ?
0418  MAC ID by Paul Starr, into Steppenwolf - Skullduggery

Still going at 0540.  SIO 434, the best I've ever heard MAC.  Some fade and static crashes, but overall, a great AM signal in NC.

Tuned in about 0208z, hearing a bunch of old country and bluegrass tunes.  IDs at 0221, 0235.
Station abruptly changed format at about an hour into the broadcast, into rock music with Led Zeppelin - Gallows Pole.

Started out with a strong signal but gradually faded, I can just barely hear Cream - White Room at 0336.

Very nice audio!

Short audio clip of ID at 0221z:
