John, this is the Viva L'Amor song I ref'd here: http://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,7622.0.html
This was also heard earlier here 2328-2330z followed by Swedish Rhapsody 2331-2334, via recorder catch.
The music is Jerry Garcia, methinks, and has been fading since the start.
Dylan poss at 0050.
0056 poss Neil Young

North American Shortwave Pirate / Toynbee Radio 6925AM *2351 - 2359*
« on: July 08, 2012, 0024 UTC »
7 July 2012
2351 Came on with two songs I could not ID (Mickey and Ludella and Dead Kennedys per TR)
2357 Some talk by a low-voiced op. This started with "Attention, Attention, Attention". A few minutes of prophetic and dire warnings including ments of "mental control...sheep...transmitting thoughts...the future is...IBM, Microsoft, and US Cellular...there is time."
ID given at the end 3 times, and it sounds like "Toynbee Radio" to me. Off at 2359.
Abt S8 here. Thanks!
45 seconds after apparently off, the song "Viva L'Amour" repeated several times. I don't know if this was related or not.
Per Toynbee Radio, these tones do not belong to him.

The opening two lines from "Viva L'Amour" played over and over. No talk to 2215 off. About S6 here; this belongs in another category?
Let every good fellow now join in a song. Viva la compagnie!
Audio: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?xo9dfzxd1hhi5i5
Also back on 0035 - 0038z at S9+5. Seemed to be USB with some carrier.

North American Shortwave Pirate / KADS 6925 *0516 - 0547*
« on: July 07, 2012, 1605 UTC »

Recorder Catch, RX on 6925.0 USB, seemed to be around S6 to S7 here
0516 Spoof commercials alternating with IDs. Some of the commercials included:
- Sleepy Bear Coffee, "the most stimulating thing you can do with your mouth"
- Door Stoppers
- Disposable Car
- Go Far Travel Brokers
- Convergence Airlines, "NY to Paris in 5 minutes"
- Winner Golf Balls, "you'll never lose again"
Several IDs such as "You are listening to KADS, All ADs Radio. All ads all the time. No news, no music, no talk. Just ads." "If you like what you're hearing, go out and buy something."
0525 Played a block of music
0547 off
I cannot find any recent reference to this. In 1966 Gordon McLendon ran a station with this call, which ran only commercials. It was a flop. This does not appear to be rebroadcast of that operation, but I am not certain if this is a new pirate or a relay of an older pirate. Any help would be appreciated.
Really enjoyed the show, and would likewise appreciate your QSL.
Thanks!

Same. Been hearing very weak music without an ID since 1247z.
Faded or off around 1259. Best estimate 6925.05kHz.

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!

Have been able to see a carrier since 2217, trace audio now and then with fades. Def OM talk at 2300. Strength here is building, but slowly.
Was eating dinner when it happened, but can definitely see the signal decline around 2305z. It has yet to rebound here at 2338.
2353 Hearing YL voice; Ms. Synth?
0009 Signal down from its rebound peak by abt 10dBm in the last 10 minutes.
0011 Very quick short peak up to S8; hrd a song frag w/ the lyric "on the radio"?
0048 Saw first sideband rendering in the waterfall; still, the fading is choppy, and hard to hear sustained audio; the whistling pesc has
taken up residence here now.
0130 Carrier has been here continuously since 0048, with only brief pop ups to snippets of talk or music
0132 Carrier off
Thanks MRI! Wish conditions were better tonight.
