Very distorted music on or in the neighborhood of 6925. Having trouble tuning in the signal.
At 2310 sounds like a male voice but very distorted. As I typed this I was able to make out "dot com" but that was it.

Other / 6903 USB

« on: October 03, 2017, 2111 UTC »

I've been hearing what sounds like EAM broadcast on 6903 USB starting 2029z on 6903 USB.
 
While these messages were being broadcast I tuned in 11175; 8992; and 6988; the messages on 6903 were not simulcast on those other frequencies (nothing at all heard on 8008). Other sources indicate that these are transmissions for a Skymaster exercise
