« on: July 07, 2012, 0324 UTC »

7 July 2012

Came on shortly before this.

0317 Noted OM & YL conversation, followed by music.  Occasional frags of music, and discussion between male/female DJ team. 

About an S9 carrier here, but that's in S9 noise.  Really fierce storm noise tonight; line of storms just firing up in Minnesota/Wesconsin.

Thanks MRI!

North American Shortwave Pirate / UNID 6925 AM(?) 0527 - 0631 UTC

« on: July 01, 2012, 1459 UTC »

Recorder Catch.

Found some weak audio in the recording during this interval.  I was tuned to 6925.00kHz, and there was a very strong persistent 150 - 170Hz het during the recording, which prevented me from getting many details other than the fact that the program seemed predominantly musical.

Thanks.

Recorder Catch.  Times are not necessarily on/off times but may be fade up/down times.

Noted audio 0555, music (electronic) at 0556.  Around 0605 noted music(?) with ascending electronic tones.  Very weak and at the noise.
Audio (recording quality) is lousy, but is available if the op wants it.

Hearing someone very weak here; it's a relatively low storm noise night here.  Fading up occasionally to hear some audio in USB.

0055 OM with "This is...?"
0115 OM singing
0118 OM mention "...shortwave..."
0128 have not heard audio or seen it in waterfall since 0123 so assumed off...

Anyone got this?

Per op, this is Stone Circles- the only Neo-Pagan broadcast on the shortwave, and the host was The shortwave Druid.

Thanks Stone Circles!
